Anti-Human/Mouse EOMES Purified

Description: This 21Mags8 antibody recognizes Eomesodermin (Eomes), also known as T-box brain 2 (TBR2). Eomes is a T-box transcription factor that is highly homologous to T-bet, which is essential during trophoblast development and gastrulation in most vertebrates. In the immune system, Eomes controls the differentiation of effector and memory CD8+ T cells, as well as natural killer (NK) cells. Expression of Eomes in these cells correlates with high expression of CD122, the common beta-chain of the IL-2R and IL-15R.

Note: For detection of mouse Eomes, we recommend 12-4875 and 51-4875 and for detection of human Eomes, we recommend 51-4877 due to the brighter staining intensity of these products compared to clone 21Mags8.
