MyBioSource.com's CD3G Antibody is a Rabbit monoclonal antibody. The CD3G Antibody was generated using CD3G, and CD3g molecule as the antigen. It reacts with Human, and Mouse. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry, Immunoprecipitation, and Western Blot.
Description
The T cell antigen receptor (TCR) recognizes foreign antigens and translates such recognition events into intracellular signals that elicit a change in the cell from a dormant to an activated state. Much of this signaling process can be attributed to a multisubunit complex of proteins that associates directly with the TCR. This complex has been designated CD3 (cluster of differentiation 3). It is composed of five invariant polypeptide chains that associate to form three dimers: a heterodimer of gamma and epsilon chains (gammaepsilon), a heterodimer of delta and epsilon chains (delta epsilon) and a homodimer of two zeta chains (zetazeta) or a heterodimer of zeta and eta chains (zetaeta). The zeta and eta chains are encoded by the same gene but differ in their carboxyl-terminal ends due to an alternative splicing event. The gamma, epsilon and delta chains each contain a single copy of a conserved immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)
