The H57-597 antibody reacts with a common epitope of the β chain of the T-cell Receptor (TCR) complex on αβ TCR-expressing thymocytes and peripheral T lymphocytes and NK1.1+ thymocytes and NK-T cells of all mouse strains tested. It does not react with γδTCR-bearing T cells. In the fetal and adult thymus, the TCR βchain may form homodimers or pair with the pre-TCR achain on the surface of immature thymocytes before expression of the TCR achain. Plate-bound or soluble H57-597 antibody activates αβTCR-bearing T cells, and plate-bound mAb can induce apoptotic death. This antibody is routinely tested by flow cytometric analysis. Other applications were tested during antibody development only or reported in the literature.
This product contains Sodium azide: a POISONOUS AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE which should be handled by trained staff only.
