anti-CD4 antibody
The RM4-5 monoclonal antibody reacts with the mouse CD4 molecule, a 55 kDa cell surface receptor expressed by a majority of thymocytes, subpopulation of mature T cells and dendritic cells. CD4 binds to MHC class II on the surface of antigen presenting cells and plays an important role both in T cell development and in optimal functioning of mature T cells. In T cells, CD4 associates with protein tyrosine kinase p56lck through its cytoplasmic tail. Binding of RM4-5 is blocked by GK1.5.

Application Notes for anti-CD4 antibody
FC/FACS: = 1 ug/test
A test is defined as the amount (ug) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 ul. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 105 to 108 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS) of anti-CD4 antibody
Staining of mouse splenocytes with CD3 antibody (FITC) and 0.06 ug of Rat IgG2a K Isotype Control (left) or 0.06 ug of CD4 antibody (right). Total viable cells were used for analysis.
