Notes

ab230834 is the carrier-free version of Anti-CD7 antibody [EPR4242] ab109296.

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

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

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.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

CD7 also known as Leu-9 or GP40 is a cell surface protein with a mass of approximately 40 kDa. The target is mainly expressed on T cells and NK cells and can be found during early T-cell development. Researchers also report CD7 expression in some B cell lineage progenitors. The CD7 function involves mediating cell signal transduction which contributes to the activation and differentiation of immune cells making it an important target in immunology studies.

Biological function summary

CD7 plays a role in modulating interactions between immune cells without being part of a larger complex. It bridges interactions promoting immune responses by influencing T cell proliferation and cytokine production. CD7 control is important in regulating immune response intensity and provides an essential checkpoint in immune system modulation. Variations in CD7 function can significantly influence immune cell behavior impacting host defense mechanisms.

Pathways

CD7 participates in immune signaling pathways such as the T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling pathway. This pathway is essential for T cell activation and involves proteins like CD3 and ZAP-70 which work together with CD7 to transduce activation signals. Alterations in the CD7 pathway can affect the downstream signaling events leading to changes in immune cell activation and function.

Associated diseases and disorders

Aberrations in CD7 expression or function link to conditions like T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and certain autoimmune diseases. In T-ALL abnormal CD7 expression serves as an indicator for diagnosis and disease progression monitoring. CD7 also interacts with proteins such as CD45 and CD3 which play roles in leukemogenesis and immune system dysregulation. Studies also explore anti-CD7 strategies for therapeutic interventions aiming to modulate its activity for treating these conditions effectively.
