Anti-Human DR3 PE

Description: The JD3 monoclonal antibody reacts with human DR3, also known as Apo-3, WSL-1, TRAMP, LARD, DDR3, and TR3. DR3, a novel death receptor is expressed at low level by monocytes and granulocytes. Interaction of DR3 with its ligand activates NF-kappa B pathway and induces apoptosis. Initially, DR3 was thought to be a receptor for TWEAK, but further studies have shown that TWEAK could induce apoptosis via receptors distinct from DR3. JD3 has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
