CD3 Antibody [Hit3a] (PE)

Product Specifications

Background

The Hit3a monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with the epsilon chain of the CD3/T lymphocyte antigen receptor complex. The CD3 complex is part of the TCR complex, expressed by all mature T lymphocytes and by the thymocyte lineage. CD3 enhances the antigen recognition by signal transduction.The HIT3a antibody cross-links with the TCR complex, initiating the cellular activation and proliferation, but it cannot be used for intracellular CD3 staining, as it is able to stain only the surface CD3 complex.
