CD6 Antibody

CD6 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that contains a 24-amino acid signal sequence, three extracellular scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) domains, a membrane-spanning domain and a 44-amino acid cytoplasmic domain. The glycoprotein is tyrosine phosphorylated during TCR-mediated T cell activation. It shows significant homology to CD5. CD6 is present on mature thymocytes, peripheral T cells and a subset of B cells. CD6 antibody can be used to deplete T cells from bone marrow transplants to prevent graft versus host disease.

Applications Notes

The concentration stated for each application is a general starting point. Variations in protocols, secondaries and substrates may require the antibody to be tittered up or down for optimal performance.1. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
