Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-Leu2 [UCH-T4]
  • Clone: rUCH-T4
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
  • Class: Recombinant
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Molecular weight of the target: 32 kDa
  • Application: FACS ; IHC ; IF
  • Description: Leu-2 is a T cell co-receptor that recognises, together with the T cell receptor, MHC class I molecules. Leu-2 is present on human suppressor / cytotoxic T cells, 30% of circulating T cells. UCH-T4 is recommended for: the detection of immunoregulatory T cell subset imbalances in autoimmune disorders and immunodeficiency states, categorisation of T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma in conjunction with other antigens and determination of T4/T8 ratios in immune deficiencies, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, etc.
  • Immunogen: Thymocytes followed by Sezary T cells.
  • Isotype: IgG1
  • Research area: Immunology; Stem cell biology

  • For Research Use Only
