Description
The TCR alpha (α) chain complexes with the TCR beta (β) chain to form the T cell receptor in 95% of T cells, whereas the remaining 5% of T cells express gamma and delta chains (γ/δ). TCR Vα2 is a distinct TCR subfamily found in mice having the a, b, and c haplotypes.
Storage
The antibody solution should be stored undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.
