Scientific Data Images for Recombinant Mouse CD8 alpha/beta Heterodimer Protein, CF

Recombinant Mouse CD8 alpha/beta Heterodimer Protein SEC-MALS.

Recombinant Mouse CD8 alpha/beta (Catalog # 11146-CD) has a molecular weight (MW) of 65.7 kDa as analyzed by SEC-MALS, suggesting that this protein is a heterodimer.  MW may differ from predicted MW due to post-translational modifications (PTMs) present (i.e. Glycosylation).

Background: CD8

CD8, also known as Ly2 or Leu2, is a heterodimeric glycoprotein (alpha and beta subunits) that functions in conjunction with the T cell receptor in the recognition of MHC class I/peptide complexes (1, 2). CD8 alpha is expressed on double positive (CD4+ CD8+) thymocytes and mature CD8+ cytolytic T cells (CTL) (3-5), intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) (6), some gamma delta T cells (7), subsets of thymic and splenic dendritic cells (DC) (8), and peritoneal mast cells (9). It can form disulfide linked homodimers or heterodimers with CD8 beta (10). Thymic CD8+ DC express primarily alpha beta heterodimers, while splenic CD8+ DC primarily express alpha alpha homodimers (8). CD8 alpha+ DC can present viral antigenic peptides in complex with MHC I and prime CTL responses (11).
