Anti-CD4a (Tac antigen, p55, Interleukin 2 Receptor alpha, IL2Ra, T Cell Growth Factor Receptor), cl

Porcine CD4 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein and a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell surface receptors. It has a pattern of expression similar to human CD4 and is not expressed on porcine CD8+ T cells. CD4 is an accessory molecule in the recognition of foreign antigens in association with MHC Class II molecules by T lymphocytes. Applications:  Flow cytometry1-4,  Immunoprecipitation1,  Cytotoxicity assays1,2, 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 and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%). Store at -20°C or colder. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
