This antibody recognizes the same epitope as clone OKT3.
CD3 (cluster of differentiation 3) is a protein complex and T cell co-receptor that is involved in activating both the cytotoxic T cell (CD8+ naive T cells) and T helper cells (CD4+ naive T cells). It is composed of four distinct chains. In mammals, the complex contains a CD3γ chain, a CD3δ chain, and two CD3ε chains. These chains associate with the T-cell receptor (TCR) and the CD3-zeta (ζ-chain) to generate an activation signal in T lymphocytes. The TCR, CD3-zeta, and the other CD3 molecules together constitute the TCR complex. The CD3–T cell receptor (TCR) complex plays a central role in the T-cell-mediated immunoresponse as it is involved in the recognition of antigens and subsequent signal transduction and activation of immunocompetent T lymphocytes. Because CD3 is required for T cell activation, drugs (often monoclonal antibodies) that target it are being investigated as immunosuppressant therapies (e.g., otelixizumab, teplizumab) for type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune diseases.

Flow cytometric analysis of Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) labeling CD3 with purified antibody at 1/500 dilution (0.1 μg) (Right) compared with a Rabbit monoclonal IgG isotype control (Left). Goat Anti-Mouse IgG Alexa Fluor® 488 was used as the secondary antibody.
Cells were surface stained with CD19-Alexa Fluor® 647, then stained with rabbit IgG (Left) / anti-CD3 (Right) separately. CD3 and CD19 are mutually exclusive expressed in human PBMCs. Gated on total viable cells.

Procedure
1. Isolate human PBMCs according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Suspend PBMCs in medium at 106 cells/mL.
3. Do one of the following depending on the format you are using:
· For the soluble format, incubate 106 cells with CD3 Mouse mAb (OKT3) at 1 µg/mL final concentration in culture for 3 days (5% CO2, 37°C).
· For the immobilized format, coat the CD3 Mouse mAb (OKT3) onto a plate at 5 to 10 μg/mL at 4°C, overnight. Add cells to the CD3 Mouse mAb (OKT3)-coated plate.
4. Wash the cells twice and resuspend them in medium at 106 cells/mL.
5. Distribute the cells in a round-bottom plate at 105 cells per well.
6. [Optional for co-stimulation] Add CD28 Mouse mAb (15E8) and optionally Protein G at 5 µg/mL each final concentration, and incubate the plate for an additional 3 days (5% CO2 at 37°C).
