Anti-TCR [H57-597]

Catalogue Number: AB00903-3.0-ABA

Manufacturer:Vector Laboratories, Inc (ABA)
Type:Recombinant Monoclonal
Alias:TCR-beta; T cell receptor; T-cell receptor; T cell receptor beta chain; TCRB; TRB; TCB1; Ti
Shipping Condition:Blue Ice
Unit(s): 200 ug
Host name: Mouse
Clone: H57-597
Isotype: IgG2b
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.
Application: FC, IP, IHC, Crstion

Application Notes

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).

Short Description

This chimeric mouse antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Hamster IgG format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
