Conjugation ready
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. 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.
What does low endotoxin mean?
Our low endotoxin, azide-free formats have low endotoxin level (1 EU/mg, determined by the TAL assay) and are free from azide, to achieve consistent experimental results in functional assays.

CD276 also known as B7-H3 is an immunoregulatory protein with a mass of approximately 57 kDa although post-translational modifications can increase its observed size. It is a member of the B7 family which is part of the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD276 is widely expressed in various tissues including placenta liver heart and also in many tumor cells. It is observed in lesser amounts in normal tissues making it an interesting target for cancer research. Various assays like HEK293 and HEK293T cell confluency studies often use CD276 to explore its expression under different conditions and seeding densities which are represented in confluency charts.
Biological function summary
CD276 modulates immune responses by acting as a co-inhibitory ligand impacting T-cell proliferation and cytokine synthesis. Not part of a known complex it plays a role in the adaptive immune system by providing negative feedback regulation that can inhibit the immune response. This capability has implications in preventing autoimmunity but may also contribute to tumor immune evasion by reducing effective anti-tumor responses. The B7-H3/CD276 interaction with receptors such as IL receptor family members suggests its diverse immunomodulatory functions.
Pathways
CD276 participates in the T-cell receptor (TCR) signaling pathways influencing immune checkpoint pathways. It interacts with other immune checkpoint proteins like PD-L1 and CTLA-4 but its exact receptor partner remains unidentified. The presence of CD276 in these pathways highlights its role in controlling T-cell activation and tolerance. By modulating TCR signals and impacting downstream effects CD276 serves as a regulatory point that can balance immune activation and inhibition critical in immune-mediated conditions.
CD276 has strong associations with cancer particularly in solid tumors such as prostate and breast cancer. It is often overexpressed in malignant tissues contributing to immune evasion by tumors. Researchers propose it as a potential target for cancer immunotherapy due to this attribute. CD276's link to disorders like asthma has also been suggested where its interaction with proteins involved in inflammatory pathways such as IL response elements can exacerbate the condition. This implicates it as a dual-role protein in both disease progression and potential therapeutic targeting.
