TCR Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: H57-597]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	H57-597
Applications	FC, IHC, IP
Reactivity	Mouse
Host	Rabbit
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Hamsters were immunised with affinity purified DO-11.10 TCR, and produced detectable anti-TCR antibodies which were judged by the ability of the anti-sera to immunoprecipitate TCR from surface labelled DO-11.10 T cell hybridomas. Hamster 57 was selected for hybridisation, and B cell hybridomas were produced using polyethylene glycol fusion of hamster splenic B cells to the mouse myeloma variant. Selected mAb were screened after subsequent culturing for their ability to immunoprecipitate TCR from detergent lysates of surface-radiolabelled murine T cell hybridomas.
Specificity	mAb H57-597 reacts with surface receptors on all alpha-beta TCR bearing cells, but does not react with receptors on gamma-delta T cells. H57-597 is directed to an epitope within the FG loop of the C region of TCR beta chain. In an immobilised form, this antibody can directly activate T cells bearing alpha-beta TCR to produce IL-2. H57-597 has also been used to construct a Fab fragment which has been complexed with deglycosylated TCRs for their crystallisation for structure determination (Liu 1996). Flow cytometry is another application of this antibody, where H57-597 has been used to analyse TCR-beta expression in different T cell populations (Tsukumo 2006).
Formulation	PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Concentration	lot specific
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Please store at 4°C for up to 3 months. For longer storage, aliquot and store at -20°C. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
Database Link	UniProt ID P01852
Note	This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Hamster IgG format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
