The Mouse CD279 (PD-1) Monoclonal Antibody Biotin Conjugated (29F.1A12) is a powerful tool for research involving PD-1, a key immune checkpoint protein that plays a crucial role in regulating T cell function. This monoclonal antibody, derived from hybridoma cell culture, specifically targets the PD-1 receptor and is conjugated with biotin for enhanced detection in cellular and molecular biology assays.PD-1, also known as programmed cell death protein 1, is a critical regulator of immune responses, helping to prevent autoimmune reactions and maintain immune tolerance. By interacting with its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, PD-1 inhibits T cell activation and dampens immune responses, making it a promising target for immunotherapy research. The 29F.1A12 antibody enables precise detection and analysis of PD-1 expression in various experimental settings, including flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, and functional studies.
Research on PD-1 has significant implications for understanding immune evasion mechanisms in cancer, infectious diseases, and autoimmunity. Targeting the PD-1 pathway with therapeutic antibodies has revolutionized cancer treatment, leading to the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors that enhance anti-tumor immune responses. The Mouse CD279 (PD-1) Monoclonal Antibody Biotin Conjugated (29F.1A12) is a valuable asset for investigations into immune checkpoint biology, offering researchers a reliable tool for probing the functions and interactions of PD-1 in diverse immunological contexts.

Background:
CD279, also known as programmed death-1 (PD-1), is a 50-55 kD glycoprotein belonging to the CD28 family of the Ig superfamily. PD-1 is expressed on activated splenic T and B cells and thymocytes. It is induced on activated myeloid cells as well. PD-1 is involved in lymphocyte clonal selection and peripheral tolerance through binding its ligands, B7-H1 (PD-L1) and B7-DC (PD-L2). It has been reported that PD-1 and PD-L1 interactions are critical to positive selection and play a role in shaping the T cell repertoire. PD-L1 negative costimulation is essential for prolonged survival of intratesticular islet allografts.
