FormulationSignalFlexTM conjugates are produced using highly validated Cell Signaling Technology®primary antibodies and conjugation methods that have been rigorously tested, ensuring high-quality conjugates and lot-to-lot consistency. These conjugates are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. However, they are not tested on specific assays.Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. When performing flow cytometry, we recommend using an isotype control conjugate at the same concentration as the antibody conjugate.
StorageSupplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg/mL BSA. Store at 4°C.Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.
Regulatory StatusResearch Use Only

Scientific Background

Cluster of Differentiation 8 (CD8) is a disulphide-linked heterodimer consisting of the unrelated α and β subunits. Each subunit is a glycoprotein composed of a single extracellular Ig-like domain, a polypeptide linker, a transmembrane part and a short cytoplasmic tail. On T cells, CD8 is the coreceptor for the T cell receptor (TCR), and these two distinct structures recognize the Antigen–Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). Specifically, the Ig-like domain of CD8α interacts with the α3-domain of the MHC class I molecule. CD8 ensures specificity of the TCR–antigen interaction, prolongs the contact between the T cell and the antigen presenting cell, and the α chain recruits the tyrosine kinase Lck, which is essential for T cell activation (1).Zamoyska, R.
