Application Notes

This antibody has been used in immunoprecipitation analysis to characterise the CD98 antigen (Luscher et al, 1985) and flow cytometric analysis of CD98 expression by γδ T cells (Cao et al, 2016). This antibody has been shown to stimulate IL-2 secretion by a T cell lymphoma EL4 subline (EL4-6.1) in the presence of IL-1 (MacDonald et al, 1985). This antibody did not exert stimulatory effects on the parental EL4 line nor a series of ovalbumin-specific T-T hybrids (MacDonald et al, 1985).

Short Description

This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Rat IgG2b format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
