Product Specific Information
Description: The 2E7 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD103, the alphaE integrin. CD103 non-covalently associates with integrin beta7 and is expressed on all intraepithelial lymphocytes, a small subset of peripheral lymphocytes, and dendritic epidermal T cells (DEC). Epithelial cell antigen E-cadherin binds to CD103 and mediates homing of lymphocytes to the intestinal epithelium.
Applications Reported: The 2E7 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. It has also been reported in in vitro functional studies.
Applications Tested: The 2E7 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 1 µg per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
Storage and handling: Use in a sterile environment.
Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.
Purity: Greater than 90%, as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin Level: Less than 0.001 ng/µg antibody, as determined by LAL assay.
Aggregation: Less than 10%, as determined by HPLC.
Target Information
CD103, also known as ITGAE or Integrin alpha E, is a molecule that non-covalently associates with integrin beta 7 to form a heterodimeric integral membrane protein. This protein is part of the integrin family, characterized by an alpha chain and a beta chain. Specifically, CD103 includes a 150 kDa alpha chain and a 120 kDa beta chain, with the alpha integrin undergoing post-translational cleavage in the extracellular domain to yield disulfide-linked heavy and light chains. CD103 is primarily expressed on mucosa-associated T lymphocytes, intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs), and activated cells, as well as a subset of TGF beta-1 cells. It is preferentially found in human intestinal IELs, where it plays a role in adhesion and may serve as an accessory molecule for IEL activation. CD103 binds to epithelial cell antigen E-cadherin, mediating the homing of lymphocytes to the intestinal epithelium. In peripheral blood and lymphoid organs, CD103 is expressed by 0.5 to 2% of resting lymphocytes, and its expression can be upregulated in vitro by stimulating human T cells with mitogens. CD103 is also expressed by hairy cell leukemia (HCL) and some chronic B cell lymphocytic leukemias. The CD103 antibody stains a few bone marrow cells and, rarely, peripheral blood lymphocytes. Diseases associated with CD103 dysfunction include hairy cell leukemia and splenic marginal zone lymphoma.
