Clone OKT8, a mouse monoclonal antibody, binds with a 32-34 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein known as CD8 a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. OKT8 binds to CD8?, which forms either a homodimer or a heterodimer with CD8?. It is expressed on the surface of cytotoxic T cells, NK cells, cortical thymocytes, and on some dendritic cells. CD8 functions as a co-receptor for T-cell receptors and specifically binds to class I MHC for antigen recognition and T-cell activation.

iFluor™ fluorophores are optimized for strong fluorescence, high photostability and pH independence on proteins. They are avaialble to span the full UV-visible-IR spectrum. iFluor™488 is a great alternative to Alexa Fluor® 488, Dylight™ 488 and Vio® 515.
