Catalogue Number 151175
Applications FACS IHC IF IP Fn RIA WB
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets CD3
Synonyms T3 complex
Reactivity Human
Relevance CRT trademarked famous anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody, capable of differentiating between T vs B cells lymphomas and leukaemia’s.

Background and Research Application
The CD3 complex, composed of four distinct CD3 polypeptide chains (CD3γ, CD3δ and 2X CD3Ɛ), associates with the T cell antigen receptor (TCR). It is found on all mature human T lymphocytes, NK cells and some thymocytes. CD3 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, involved in antigen recognition, T lymphocyte activation and signal transduction.

UCH-T1 is considered a pan T-cell marker - it can be used for the detection of T cell populations in peripheral blood and lymph nodes and the categorisation of T versus B cell lymphomas and leukaemia’s. It reacts with the majority of peripheral blood T lymphocytes, a major proportion of thymocytes, the majority of T cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells, Sézary leukaemia’s and approximately 70% of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia’s of T cell origin. It can also be used to study the role of CD3 in TCR signal transduction events.

This antibody was created by Professor Peter Beverley, a pioneer in creating hybridomas from mice immunised against human lymphocytes, with UCHT1 being one of the first successful fusions.
Host Mouse
Immunogen Human infant thymocytes and Sezary cells.
Immunogen UniProt ID P04234
Subclass IgG1
Myeloma Used P3/NS1/1-Ag4.1
Recommended Growing Conditions RPMI 1640 + 5% FCS.
Strain Balb/c
Notes Production Details
Purified using multi-step affinity chromatography with protein A.

Storage Conditions
Store at -20 degrees frozen. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Points of Interest
Recommended for the enrichment of T cell populations by cell sorting or panning.
UCHT1 binds to an acidic region of CD3-epsilon, occluding this region form direct interaction with the T cell receptor. UCHT1 readily detects T-cell populations, in peripheral blood and lymph nodes, as CD3 is present on around 68-82% of healthy peripheral blood lymphocytes.
