Background
Identification of human T lymphocytes in multiple stages of T cell development, including a major subset of mature peripheral T cells. CD7 antigen is often increased on T leukemic cells. The CD7 molecule is a 40,000 M.W. surface antigen that is expressed on T-Lymphoid and myeloid precursors in fetal liver and bone marrow.

Synonyms: T-cell antigen CD7; GP40; T-cell leukemia antigen; TP41; Leu-9

Source

Immunogen: CD7=Derived from the hybridization of mouse P3-X63-Ag8.653 myeloma cells with spleen cells of BALB/c mice immunized with T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cells.

Product
