Anti-Human CD5 PerCP-eFluor® 710

Description: The UCHT2 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD5, a 67 kDa protein expressed by a majority of thymocytes and mature T cells and a subset of B cells. Signaling through the CD5 molecule activates T cells and binding of CD5 to its ligand on B cells, CD72, and plays an important role in T-B interaction and proliferation.\\\\The monoclonal antibody UCHT2 recognizes primate CD5.
