General description

Monoclonal Anti-ZAP-70 (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 1E7.2 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from mice. ZAP-70 is a protein tyrosine kinase of the Syk family that is localized exclusively to the cytosol of T cells and natural killer cells.

Immunogen

The immunogen sequence is conjugated to KLH.

peptide corresponding to amino acids 282-307 of human ZAP-70.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-ZAP-70 antibody has been used in

enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
immunoblottin
flow cytometry
immunoprecipitation
immunocytochemistry

Monoclonal Anti-ZAP-70 antibody is suitable for use in western blot (0.5-1.0 μg/mL using Jurkat cell extract), flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, immunoprecipitation, microarray and indirect ELISA.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ZAP-70 is a protein tyrosine kinase that is expressed in natural killer cells and T-lymphocytes. ZAP-70 interacts with the zeta chain of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and subsequently modulates cell signaling . Lack of ZAP-70 leads to an absence of antigen-specific response and also causes impaired T cell differentiation . Anti-ZAP-70 antibody is specific for human and mouse ZAP-70 (approx. 70 kDa).

Zeta-chain-associated protein kinase70 (ZAP-70) is required for T-cell activation and is activated by(Tyrosine protein kinase) Lck-mediated phosphorylation of its tyrosine residues. Mutation of the gene that creates a defective ZAP-70 results in severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome (SCID).

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
