Anti-CD7 Antibody, clone 1E19 ZooMAb^® Rabbit Monoclonal

T-cell antigen CD7 (UniProt: P09564; also known as GP40, T-cell leukemia antigen, T-cell surface antigen Leu-9, TP41) is encoded by the CD7 gene (Gene ID: 924) in human. CD7 is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed predominantly on T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and their precursors. It belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and functions as a single-pass type I membrane protein. CD7 plays a critical role in immune regulation by acting as a costimulatory molecule during T-cell activation, particularly upon binding to its ligand, SECTM1 (secreted and transmembrane protein 1). This interaction facilitates the production of cytokines like interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interferon-gamma (IFN- ), enhancing immune responses. CD7 is involved in intracellular signaling pathways, including the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway, which is crucial for cellular adhesion and migration. Its expression is tightly regulated by transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms, and it is upregulated in certain immune activation states. CD7 interacts with other proteins such as PI3K and SECTM1, influencing processes like monocyte migration and T-cell infiltration into tumors. Dysregulation of CD7 has been implicated in various diseases, including lymphomas, autoimmune disorders like systemic sclerosis, and immune deficiencies. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our proprietary technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

ZooMAb^® antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies. Each ZooMAb^® antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb^® antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to 25 amino acids from the internal region of human CD7.

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected CD7 in HepG2 cells and Jurkat cells.

Flow Cytometry Analysis: 0.1 µg from a representative lot detected CD7 in one million human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC).

Note: Actual optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user as specimens, and experimental conditions may vary with the end user.

Clone 1E19 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that detects CD7. It targets an epitope within 25 amino acids from the internal region.

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

0.3 mg/mL. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
