Product Specific Information
Notice: The eVolve™ line of antibody conjugates will be discontinued at the end of February, 2018 and replaced with our improved Invitrogen™ eBioscience™ Super Bright conjugated antibodies for flow cytometry. Individual eVovle catalog numbers will become unavailable as inventory depletes. This item has a corresponding Super Bright 600 format available - please see Product # 63-0047-42. We will continue to offer a selection of Qdot conjugated antibodies.
Description: The SK3 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD4, a 59-kDa cell surface receptor expressed by a majority of thymocytes, a subpopulation of mature T helper cells, and at low levels on monocytes. CD4 is a receptor for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). SK3 blocks HIV binding and mixed lymphocyte reaction. The SK3 and RPA-T4 monoclonal antibodies do not cross-block binding, suggesting recognition of distinct epitopes.
Applications Reported: This SK3 (SK-3) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested: This SK3 (SK-3) antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 µL per test. A test is defined as the amount of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test.
For best results when using antibodies conjugated to eVolve™, we recommend a quick spin of the vial before use and avoid touching the bottom of the vial with the pipet tip.
Laser/Filter Recommendation: eVolve™ 605 can be optimally excited with laser lines from 325-405 nm, and emits near 610 nm. We recommend using the violet (405 nm) laser line for excitation and a 595LP with a 605/40 or 610/20 bandpass filter, or equivalent, for detection.
Fixation Recommendation: Antibodies conjugated to eVolve™ are compatible with eBioscience's fixation and permeabilization buffers.
Excitation: 350-590 nm; Emission: 605 nm; Laser: Ultraviolet Laser, Violet Laser
Storage and handling: For best results when using antibodies conjugated to eVolve™, we recommend a quick spin of the vial before use and avoid touching the bottom of the vial with the pipet tip.
Target Information
The CD4 antigen is involved in the recognition of MHC class II molecules and is a co-receptor for HIV. CD4 is primarily expressed in a subset of T-lymphocytes, also referred to as T helper cells, but may also be expressed by other cells in the immune system, such as monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. At the tissue level, CD4 expression may be detected in thymus, lymph nodes, tonsils, and spleen, and also in specific regions of the brain, gut, and other non-lymphoid tissues. CD4 functions to initiate or augment the early phase of T-cell activation through its association with the T-cell receptor complex and protein tyrosine kinase, Lck. It may also function as an important mediator of direct neuronal damage in infectious and immune-mediated diseases of the central nervous system. Multiple alternatively spliced transcripts have been identified in this gene [RefSeq, July 2017].
