PE-I-Ab/OVA (ISQAVHAAHAEINEAGR) MHC Tetramer

CAT#: MHC-LC657

This product is a tetramer of biotinylated peptide/MHC complex with streptavidin mainly composed of OVA-derived peptide of ISQAVHAAHAEINEAGR sequence covering 323-339 and I-Ab molecule. The pMHC tetramer recognizes mouse CD4 T cells, and can be used in the analysis of individual antigen-specific T cells.

Target

  • Antigen Introduction
  • Ovalbumin (abbreviated OVA) is the main protein found in egg white, making up approximately 55% of the total protein. Ovalbumin displays sequence and three-dimensional homology to the serpin superfamily, but unlike most serpins it is not a serine protease inhibitor. The function of ovalbumin is unknown, although it is presumed to be a storage protein.
  • Alternative Names
  • OVA; Ovalbumin

Breast cancer biomarkers at key points during disease progression
Excellent for T Cell Analysis
Having used the PE-I-Ab/OVA MHC Tetramer, I found it an invaluable tool for precise detection and analysis of antigen-specific T cells. The fluorescent PE labeling made flow cytometry seamless and informative, greatly enhancing our understanding of immune cell dynamics in our research on autoimmune pathways.
Breast cancer biomarkers at key points during disease progression
Enhanced Sensitivity and Detection
The enhanced sensitivity offered by this tetramer over traditional methods was clear in our experiments. It helped capture low-frequency antigen-specific T cells, a crucial factor for our cancer immunology research, better guiding our therapeutic strategies.
Breast cancer biomarkers at key points during disease progression
Supports Aging Study Research
Ideal for characterizing how aging affects antigen-specific T cell responses-critical in our investigation of differential immune responses in older populations.

Q&As

  1. What is the main target of this MHC tetramer?

    A: The main target of this MHC tetramer is the CD4 T cells in mice. It specifically recognizes T cells that are antigen-specific for the ovalbumin peptide sequence ISQAVHAAHAEINEAGR, which is part of the OVA protein commonly used in research.

  2. Can the product be used to study autoimmune diseases?

    A: Yes, the tetramer can be used to study autoimmune diseases by analyzing the response of CD4 T cells to specific antigens like OVA, providing insights into T cell functionality and autoantigen recognition mechanisms.

  3. Why is PE conjugation used in this product?

    A: PE (phycoerythrin) is a fluorescent dye used to label the MHC tetramer, allowing for flow cytometric analysis to detect and quantify specific T cells in a mixed population.
