  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: ELISA ; FACS ; IHC ; IP
  • Strain: Balb/c
  • Description: This monoclonal antibody recognises the gamma delta T cell receptor (gamma delta TCR). This antibody can be used to detect populations of gamma delta T cells. This antibody reacts with human gamma delta TCR in native as well as denatured states.

  • For Research Use Only

Target Details

  • Target: TCR yd
  • Target background: The T-cell receptor (TCR) is a molecule found on the surface of T cells, or T lymphocytes, that is responsible for recognising fragments of antigen as peptides bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. The TCR is composed of two different protein chains. In humans, in 95% of T cells the TCR consists of an alpha chain and a beta chain, whereas in 5% of T cells the TCR consists of gamma and delta (y/d) chains. This ratio changes during ontogeny and in diseased states such as leukaemia, as well as autoimmune diseases like psoriasis.
