    Flow Cyt: Use 0.125µg for 105-8 cells. Staining the cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL is recommended.

Target

Function

Identifies cytotoxic/suppressor T-cells that interact with MHC class I bearing targets. CD8 is thought to play a role in the process of T-cell mediated killing. CD8 alpha chains binds to class I MHC molecules alpha-3 domains.

Involvement in disease

Defects in CD8A are a cause of familial CD8 deficiency (CD8 deficiency) [MIM:608957]. Familial CD8 deficiency is a novel autosomal recessive immunologic defect characterized by absence of CD8+ cells, leading to recurrent bacterial infections.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.

Post-translational
modifications

All of the five most carboxyl-terminal cysteines form inter-chain disulfide bonds in dimers and higher multimers, while the four N-terminal cysteines do not.

Cellular localization

Secreted and Cell membrane.
