The PE Anti-Mouse CD4 Antibody (RM4-5) is a valuable tool for researchers studying the CD4 protein, a crucial cell surface marker involved in immune system function. This antibody, specifically designed for use in flow cytometry applications, is raised in hamsters and exhibits high reactivity with mouse samples.CD4, a glycoprotein expressed on the surface of T helper cells, plays a key role in immune responses by interacting with major histocompatibility complex class II molecules. The PE Anti-Mouse CD4 Antibody (RM4-5) effectively binds to CD4, enabling accurate detection and quantification of CD4-expressing cells in various biological samples.
This makes it an essential reagent for investigating immune cell populations and studying immune responses in research settings.With its reliable performance and specificity for mouse CD4, this antibody is indispensable for immunology studies, including those focused on T cell biology, immune system regulation, and autoimmune diseases. Whether used for basic research or therapeutic development, the PE Anti-Mouse CD4 Antibody (RM4-5) offers a convenient and effective solution for scientists exploring the intricate mechanisms of the immune system.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by flow cytometric analysis. The amount of the reagent is suggested to be used 5 µL of antibody per test (million cells in 100 µL staining volume or per 100 µL of whole blood). Please check your vial before the experiment. Since applications vary, the appropriate dilutions must be determined for individual use.

Background:
CD4 is a 55 kD protein also known as L3T4 or T4. It is a member of the Ig superfamily, primarily expressed on most thymocytes and a subset of T cells, and weakly on macrophages and dendritic cells. It acts as a co-receptor with the TCR during T cell activation and thymic differentiation by binding MHC class II and associating with the protein tyrosine kinase lck.
