Purity:Purified by Protein A affinity chromatography.
Form:Supplied as a liquid in PBS, 0.02% Proclin 300.
Specificity:Recognizes human Fc gamma receptor III. 3G8 binds to CD16 at an epitope which is not the IgG-binding site. This antibody cannot distinguish between CD16a transmembrane isoform found on the surface of NK cells and macrophages (which can trigger the cytolytic response), and the GPI-linked CD16b isoform present on neutrophils or soluble CD16 found in the plasma. Species Crossreactivity: baboon, capuchin monkey, chimpanzee, cotton-topped tamarin, cynomolgus, marmoset, pigtailed macaque, rhesus, sooty mangabey, squirrel monkey.
