Species Reactivity | Human |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody binds human CD277 (BTNA3A1). This protein plays an important role in T-cell activation and in the adaptive immune response. It regulates proliferation of activated T-cells and release of IFNG by activated T-cells. It is expressed on surface of T-cells, natural killer cells, dendritic cells and macrophages (at protein level). It is highly expressed in heart, pancreas and lung and moderately expressed in placenta, liver and muscle. |
Alternative Name | BTN3A1; BTF5; BT3; BT3.1; Butyrophilin subfamily 3 member A1 |
UniProt | O00481 |
Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing BALB/c mice with soluble BT3.1-Ig fusion protein. |
Application Notes | This antibody was used as an antagonist antibody to check if BTN3A can specifically enhance Vg9Vd2 TCR-mediated lysis of primary AML blasts using cytotoxic assays. This antibody was reported to significantly and drastically abrogate zoledronate (ZOL)-induced lysis (PMID: 27853633). This antibody can completely abrogate Vγ9Vδ2 T cell mediated lysis of tumors (PMID: 29296524). |
