Anti-CD4 (CD4 Receptor, CD4mut, T Cell Surface Antigen T4/Leu3, T Cell Surface Glycoprotein CD4) (Bi

Human CD4 is a cell surface glycoprotein of 55kD expressed on most thymocytes, on about two thirds of peripheral T cells, and on some monocyte macrophage lineage cells. CD4 interacts with MHC Class II molecules in an accessory role during foreign antigen recognition by T cells. The extracellular portion of CD4 is an array of four Ig-like domains. The amino terminal region of CD4 is a receptor for the HIV-1 viral protein gp120. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage, store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 6 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
