Each subunit is a glycoprotein composed of a single extracellular Ig-like domain, a polypeptide linker, a transmembrane part and a short cytoplasmic tail. On T cells, CD8 is the coreceptor for the T cell receptor (TCR), and these two distinct structures recognize the Antigen-Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). Specifically, the Ig-like domain of CD8α interacts with the α3-domain of the MHC class I molecule. CD8 ensures specificity of the TCR-antigen interaction, prolongs the contact between the T cell and the antigen presenting cell, and the α chain recruits the tyrosine kinase Lck, which is essential for T cell activation (1).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCD8; CD8 antigen alpha polypeptide; CD8 antigen, alpha polypeptide (p32); CD8A; CD8a molecule; Leu2; Leu2 T-lymphocyte antigen; MAL; OKT8 T-cell antigen; p32; T cell co-receptor; T-cell antigen Leu2; T-cell surface glycoprotein CD8 alpha chain; T-lymphocyte differentiation antigen T8\/Leu-2; T8 T-cell antigen\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 29\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799951691945,"sku":"85336S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-85336s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
