CD132 Monoclonal Antibody (TUGh4), Biotin, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

• Description: This TUGh4 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD132, the common gamma chain (gamma c) shared by the IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, and IL-15 receptors
• This approximately 65 kDa receptor component is expressed on T and B lymphocytes, NK cells, monocytes, and granulocytes
• CD132 is involved in intracellular signal transduction by associating with effector molecules within the cytoplasm
• Mutations in the human gamma chain gene result in X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (XSCID), a disease characterized by T cell deficiency leading to impairment of cell-mediated and humoral immunity
• Applications Reported: This antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis
• Applications Tested: This TUGh4 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells
• This can be used at less than or equal to 0.125 μg per test
• A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL
• Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test
• It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest
• Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered
• IL2RG is an important signaling component of many interleukin receptors, including those of interleukin -2, -4, -7 and -21, and is thus referred to as the common gamma chain
• Mutations in this gene cause X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (XSCID), as well as X-linked combined immunodeficiency (XCID), a less severe immunodeficiency disorder.
