Product Specifications
Immunogen
3F12 was prepared by hyperimmunizing BALB/c mice with purified recombinant human LTalpha expressed in E. coli - the hybridoma clone was selected for its ability to bind LTalpha3 by ELISA. The CDRs of the antibody were grafted to the framework regions of the mice mAb 2G7 to create the chimeric version of the antibody.
Specificity
3F12 binds to human LTalpha3 and LT-alpha-beta (with a KD of ~0.3 nM, determined by BIACORE; ~ 37 pM, determined by ELISA) in both its soluble homotrimeric and membrane heterotrimeric forms. LTalpha belongs to the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamily and is secreted as a homo-trimer (LTalpha3), or is expressed on the cell surface in complex with LTbeta. Lymphotoxin is produced by lymphocytes and in its homotrimeric form binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1, TNFRSF1B/TNFBR and TNFRSF14/HVEM. LTalpha3 signaling induces target cells to upregulate many chemokines and cytokines in an NFkB-dependent manner.

Applications for Lymphotoxin-alpha/TNF-beta Antibody (3F12.2D3) - Azide and BSA Free
Application
Recommended Usage
ELISA
Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Flow Cytometry
Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Surface Plasmon Resonance
Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Neutralization
Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Application Notes
The properties of the chimieric 3F12 is equivalent to that of the original 3F12 mAb. 3F12 is able to bind to Th2 cells and additionally is can functionally block human LTalpha3 versus an isotype control (trastuzumab) - LTalpha3-induced ICAM upregulation is blocked on HUVEC (Human Umbilical Endothelial Cells) (IC50 0.04 nM) and LTalpha3-induced IL-8 is blocked in A549 cells. The antibody has also been used in ELISA studies to detect LT-alpha and to measure binding.
