Function
Identifies cytotoxic/suppressor T-cells that interact with MHC class I bearing targets. CD8 is thought to play a role in the process of T-cell mediated killing. CD8 alpha chains binds to class I MHC molecules alpha-3 domains. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in CD8A are a cause of familial CD8 deficiency (CD8 deficiency) [MIM:608957]. Familial CD8 deficiency is a novel autosomal recessive immunologic defect characterized by absence of CD8+ cells, leading to recurrent bacterial infections. -
Sequence similarities
Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsAll of the five most carboxyl-terminal cysteines form inter-chain disulfide bonds in dimers and higher multimers, while the four N-terminal cysteines do not. -

All lanes : Anti-CD8 alpha antibody (ab85792) at 1 µg/ml
Lane 1 : Human thymus tissue lysate - total protein (ab30146)
Lane 2 : Human spleen tissue lysate - total protein (ab29699)
Lane 3 : Human tonsil normal tissue lysate - total protein (ab29615)
Lane 4 : THP1 (Human acute monocytic leukemia cell line) Whole Cell Lysate
Lysates/proteins at 10 µg per lane.
Secondary
All lanes : Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (HRP), pre-adsorbed at 1/5000 dilution
Developed using the ECL technique.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 25 kDa
Observed band size: 30 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Exposure time: 4 minutesCD8 alpha is a glycoprotein which may account for the observed bands running at a higher molecular weight than predicted. Abcam welcomes customer feedback.

IHC image of CD8 alpha staining in human tonsil formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab85792, 5µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
