| | All CD3 Reagents | | Clone: | OKT3 （See other available formats） | | Isotype: | Mouse IgG2a, κ | | Isotype Control: | LEAF™ Purified Mouse IgG2a, κ Isotype Ctrl | | Reactivity: | Human | | Formulation: | 0.2 µm filtered in phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing no preservative. Endotoxin level is <0.1 EU/µg of the protein （<0.01 ng/µg of the protein） as determined by the LAL test. | | Preparation: | The LEAF™ （Low Endotoxin, Azide-Free） antibody was purified by affinity chromatography. | | Concentration: | 1.0 mg/ml | | Storage & Handling: | The CD3 antibody solution should be stored undiluted at 4°C. This LEAF™ solution contains no preservative; handle under aseptic conditions. | | Application: | FC - Quality tested
IHC, Activ - Reported in the literature | | Recommended Usage: | Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For immunofluorescent staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤2.0 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume or 100 µl of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. | | COA: | Enter Lot#:  | Application
Notes: | Clone OKT3 can block the binding of clones SK7 and UCHT1.8 The OKT3 antibody is able to induce T cell activation. Additional reported applications （for the relevant formats） include: immunohistochemical staining of acetone-fixed frozen sections and activation of T cells. The LEAF™ purified antibody （Endotoxin <0.1 EU/μg, Azide-Free, 0.2 μm filtered） is recommended for functional assays （Cat. No. 317304）. For highly sensitive assays, we recommend Ultra-LEAF™ purified antibody （Cat. No. 317326） with a lower endotoxin limit than standard LEAF™ purified antibodies （Endotoxin <0.01 EU/µg）. | Application

| Description: | CD3ε is a 20 kD chain of the CD3/T-cell receptor （TCR） complex which is composed of two CD3ε, one CD3γ, one CD3δ, one CD3ζ （CD247）, and a T-cell receptor （α/β or γ/δ） heterodimer. It is found on all mature T lymphocytes, NK-T cells, and some thymocytes. CD3, also known as T3, is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that plays a role in antigen recognition, signal transduction, and T cell activation. | | Other Names: | T3, CD3ε | | Structure: | Ig superfamily, with the subunits of CD3γ, CD3δ, CD3ζ （CD247） and TCR （α/β or γ/δ） forms CD3/TCR complex, 20 kD | | Distribution: | Mature T and NK-T cells, thymocyte differentiation | | Function: | Antigen recognition, signal transduction, T cell activation | | Ligand Receptor: | Peptide antigen bound to MHC | Antigen
