Applications and Recommended Usage?
Quality Tested by Leinco
Flow Cytometry: This antibody has been quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For immunofluorescent staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤0.25 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested.
Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications. See directions on lot specific datasheets, as information may periodically change.

Description

Specificity
This antibody reacts with Vγ 2 T-Cell Receptor (TCR)-bearing T lymphocytes.
Antigen Distribution
Vγ 2 T-Cell Receptor (TCR)-bearing T lymphocytes make up a significant proportion of γδ TCR-bearing cells in the late fetal and adult thymus and adult peripheral lymphoid tissues and lung.
Background
The T cell receptor or TCR is a molecule found on the surface of T lymphocytes that is responsible for recognizing antigens bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. It is a heterodimer consisting of an α and β chain in 95% of T cells, while 5% of T cells have TCRs consisting of γ and δ chains. Engagement of the TCR with antigen and MHC results in activation of its T lymphocyte through a series of biochemical events mediated by associated enzymes, co-receptors and specialized accessory molecules.

Function
Might play a role in a previously unrecognized form of immunological surveillance for stress-induced self-antigens.
