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
modificationsAll 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. -

Immunocytochemistry - Anti-CD8 alpha antibody [EP1150Y] (ab93278)
Immunocytochemistry analysis of MOLT-4 (human lymphoblastic leukemia T lymphoblast) labeling CD8 alpha with purified ab93278 at 1/250 dilution (9 µg/ml). Cells were fixed with 100% methanol. Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077) at 1/1000 (2 µg/ml) was used as the secondary antibody. ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) 1/200 (2.21 µg/ml) was used as counterstain. Nuclei were stained blue with DAPI.
Negative control: PBS instead of the primary antibody. -
