Background
The CD3 epitope is expressed on the epsilon chain of the CD3/T cell antigen receptor (TcR) complex. CD3 is present on 65-85% of thymocytes and has a mitogenic effect on peripheral blood T cells. Identification of human T cells expressing the 22-28,000 M.W. surface antigen. Identification of CD4 human helper/inducer T cells expressing the 60,000 M.W. surface antigen (HLA class II reactive). CD4 is present in low density on monocytes.

Synonyms: CD3 FITC - CD4 PE

Source

Immunogen: CD3=Derived from the hybridization of mouse NS-1 myeloma celss with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with human thymocytes. CD4=Derived from the hybridization of mouse NS-1 myeloma cells with spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with human perherial blood T lymphocytes.
