Anti-Mouse CD96 In Vivo Antibody - Ultra Low Endotoxin
Introducing the Anti-Mouse CD96 In Vivo Antibody - Ultra Low Endotoxin from Assay Genie, a highly specific monoclonal antibody designed for in vivo applications. This antibody targets the CD96 protein, crucial in immune response modulation, making it ideal for research in immunology and related fields. With remarkable purity and ultra low endotoxin levels (<0.01 EU/mg), it is perfect for ELISA, flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and other assays. Available in various sizes, it is formulated in phosphate-buffered saline to ensure both stability and efficacy.
Enhance your research with this reliable and versatile antibody. CD96, also known as Tactile, is a protein found on the surface of immune cells such as T-cells and natural killer (NK) cells. It plays a significant role in the immune system by interacting with CD155 and other cellular ligands, influencing cell adhesion and signaling pathways crucial for immune cell function. The precise targeting of CD96 can provide valuable insights into cancer immunotherapy and other immunological research areas.

CD96 is a single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein in the immunoglobulin superfamily that is heavily N-glycosylated1. Murine (m) CD96 is present at the surface of most lymphocytes, including NK, CD4+ T, CD8+ T, NKT, and gammaδ T cells, but not B lymphocytes, neutrophils, macrophages, or dendritic cells2. mCD96 interacts with mCD155 and nectin-1 (CD111)1. A V-like domain mediates binding of mCD96 to mCD155 via interaction between amino acids of the FG loop of one binding partner with residues in the C’C’’-loop of the other. CD96 is a member of an interaction network that includes adhesion, activation, and inhibition activities.
CD96 contains three Ig-like domains that are separated from the transmembrane domain by a long proline, serine, and threonine rich stalk that undergoes extensive O-linked glycomodification1. The stalk may play a role in orientation or presentation of the Ig-like domains. mAb 3.3 binds to the first Ig domain and competes with CD155 for binding3.
Human CD96 has a mild boosting effect on 2B4- and NKp30-mediated killing, but a direct role in the activation of NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro has not been observed 1. In contrast, mCD96 suppresses NK cells in vivo2. Blocking studies show that mCD96 competes with CD226 for CD155 binding and limits NK cell function by direct inhibition2. Additionally, blocking mCD96 in vivo with mAb 3.3 protects against metastasis in three different tumor models. The antimetastatic effect of mAb 3.3 is independent of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity and activating Fc receptors3,4 and is enhanced by anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA-4 mAbs4. Suppression of metastasis by mAb 3.3 is dependent on NK cells, CD226 (DNAM-1), and IFN-gamma4. Additionally, mAb 3.3 loses its antimetastatic function in CD155- and IL-12p35-deficient mice3.
