FOXP3 antibody (APC)

Catalog No. ABIN2749083

Product Details anti-FOXP3 Antibody (APC)

Target: FOXP3 (Forkhead Box P3 (FOXP3))

Reactivity: Human, Mouse

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This FOXP3 antibody is conjugated to APC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The mouse monoclonal antibody 3G3 recognizes N-terminal region of FoxP3, a 47-55 kDa transcription factor (intracellular antigen), which is the master regulator in the development and function of regulatory T cells.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human, Mouse

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with activated allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Background: Forkhead box P3,FoxP3 (forkhead box protein 3), a highly conserved forkhead/winged-helix transcription factor, plays a crucial role in maintaining immune homeostasis by governing the development and function of regulatory T cells. It is constitutively expressed at high level in CD25+ CD4+ Treg cells and at low level in a CD25- CD4+ Treg cell subset. Defects in gene encoding FoxP3 protein cause the scurfy phenotype in mice, and in human the IPEX syndrome (immune dysfunction, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked syndrome), also known as X-linked autoimmunity-allergic dysregulation (XLAAD) syndrome.,Scurfin, JM2, AIID, IPEX, PIDX, XPID, DIETER
