The clone SK3, a mouse monoclonal antibody selectively binds with a 55-59kD type I transmembrane glycoprotein and a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD4 contains four extracellular Ig-like domains (D1- D4). The epitope for SK3 is located within the D3 domain of the protein, which has a structure resembling an Ig variable domain. Expression of CD4 is observed in subsets of T lymphocytes, monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. Through interaction of MHC-II, CD4 facilitates cell-cell interaction, thymic differentiation, and activation of downstream signaling cascades. HIV infection of T-cells is instigated through binding of HIV to CD4. Binding of SK3 antibody blocks HIV infection through CD4 and also blocks the mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR).
Each lot of these antibodies has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of human PBMCs such that 0.5μg (unconjugated, Biotin) or 5μl (conjugated) of these products are sufficient for staining 1 million cells in a 100μl staining volume or 100μl of whole blood. It is recommended to titrate antibody reactivity empirically for optimal performance. Do you need an antibody for an antigen you don't see on our website? Do you need a different conjugation than what we have listed? We have a wide selection of antigens with a variety of conjugations available. Please reach out to us at support@geneseesci.com.
