Application:

WB

Reactivity:

Human

Dilution:

WB 1:500-1:2000

	Western blot analysis of CD8A expression in Jurkat cells

Purification:

Affinity-chromatography

Specificity:

CD8A Antibody detects endogenous levels of total CD8A

Immunogen:

A synthesized peptide derived from human CD8A

Description:

Identifies cytotoxic/suppressor T-cells that interact with MHC class I bearing targets. CD8 is thought to play a role in the process of T-cell mediated killing. CD8 alpha chains binds to class I MHC molecules alpha-3 domains.
