SYBR Green qPCR primers for detecting human CD8A (CD8 subunit alpha) gene expression by real-time PCR. Each set comes with primer sequences and reaction conditions.
Human CD8A qPCR Primer Set – CD8 subunit alpha
Also known as: CD8, CD8alpha, IMD116, Leu2, p32
About this gene: The CD8 antigen is a cell surface glycoprotein found on most cytotoxic T lymphocytes that mediates efficient cell-cell interactions within the immune system. The CD8 antigen acts as a coreceptor with the T-cell receptor on the T lymphocyte to recognize antigens displayed by an antigen presenting cell in the context of class I MHC molecules. The coreceptor acts as either a homodimer composed of two alpha chains or as a heterodimer composed of one alpha and one beta chain.
Gene details: NCBI Gene ID: 925; HGNC ID: HGNC:1706; UniProt: P01732; RefSeq (MANE Select): NM_001768.7; Chromosome location: 2p11.2
What you get: Primers are provided as a 40 µl solution containing both primers at a final concentration of 50 µM in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.1 mM EDTA. Dilute with H2O as needed prior to use. This amount is sufficient for 1,000 PCR reactions of 20 µl, assuming a final primer concentration of 0.1 µM.
