Description

Specificity
Clone UCHT4 recognizes human CD8.
Background
CD8 is made up of disulfidelinked α and β chains that form the α(CD8a)/β(CD8b) heterodimer and α/α homodimer. CD8 is part of the Ig superfamily that expresses primarily as CD8a homodimers. CD8a is a 3234 kD type I glycoprotein that can also form heterodimers with CD8b. CD8 is an antigen coreceptor on T cells that mediates efficient cell to cell interactions within the immune system. CD8 coupled with the T cell receptor on the T lymphocyte recognizes an antigen displayed by an antigen presenting cell (APC) in the context of class I MHC molecules. The CD8 coreceptor also plays a role in T cell signaling by interacting with Lck (lymphocytespecific protein tyrosine kinase) which leads to the activation of transcription factors that affect the expression of certain genes.
Antigen Distribution
CD8 is expressed on blood lymphocytes, a subset of NK cells, and thymocytes. Persons with HIV exhibit increased levels of CD8+ lymphocytes.
