Notes

Monkey TIM-3 Antibody Pair is a matched pair of unconjugated recombinant rabbit monoclonal capture and detection antibodies used to quantify Monkey TIM-3 in sandwich ELISAs and many other pair-based applications.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

The pair can be used in variety of assays and platforms including but not limited to:


  • Sandwich ELISA

  • FRET/TR-FRET/HTRF

  • Meso Scale Discovery® (MSD®)

  • Bead-based assays

  • AlphaLISA®/AlphaScreen®

  • DELFIA® immunoassays

  • Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays

  • Multiplex

Our antibody pairs are supplied in a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:


  • Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.

  • Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.

We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation services.

Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.

Please note:

The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.

The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.

We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

Antibody properties:

Capture antibody: recombinant rabbit monoclonal (unconjugated) – 100 µg

Detector antibody: recombinant rabbit monoclonal (unconjugated) - 100 µg

Concentration: ~1 mg/ml

Storage buffer: 100% PBS

Form: Liquid

Isotype: IgG

Recombinant monoclonal antibodies offer several advantages including:

- High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility

- Improved sensitivity and specificity

- Long-term security of supply

- Animal-free production

Activity summary

TIM-3 also known as T cell immunoglobulin and mucin-domain containing-3 or HAVCR2 is a protein involved in immune regulation. It possesses an approximate mass of 35 kDa. TIM-3 is expressed on various immune cells including T cells NK cells and dendritic cells especially after activation. The expression level often changes in response to inflammatory conditions suggesting its role in modulating immune responses.

Biological function summary

TIM-3 functions as a checkpoint inhibitor impacting immune cell activity. It is not part of a larger physical complex but it modulates immune responses by interacting with its ligands such as Galectin-9 phosphatidylserine and CEACAM1. TIM-3 involvement in downregulating Th1 cell responses shows its necessary role in maintaining immune homeostasis. The protein also acts in regulating tolerance mechanisms and preventing autoimmunity.

Pathways

TIM-3 participation is seen in the immune checkpoint and T cell exhaustion pathways. TIM-3 signaling results in T cell inhibition affecting the PD-1 pathway as well. It shares a relationship with proteins like LAG-3 and PD-1 which are key to immune inhibitory signaling. These interactions depict TIM-3's role in immune tolerance during chronic infections and malignancies.

Associated diseases and disorders

TIM-3 association with cancer and chronic infections provides insight into therapeutic implications. In cancer TIM-3 contributes to immune evasion often co-expressed with PD-1 leading to T cell exhaustion. In autoimmune diseases TIM-3 modulation may affect disease progression by influencing immune tolerance. Understanding TIM-3's role in these contexts aids in developing targeted therapies such as anti-TIM-3 antibodies to enhance immune responses in cancer while promoting tolerance in autoimmunity.
