Product Specifications
Immunogen
This antibody was raised by immunising rats with TIM-3:Ig fusion protein emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant.
Specificity
This antibody is specific for murine TIM-3, a Th1-specific cell surface protein. TIM-3 is a type I transmembrane protein and contains an immunoglobulin and a mucin-like domain in its extracellular portion and a tyrosine phosphorylation motif in its cytoplasmic portion. This antibody binds to the BALB/c allele of TIM-3 while reactivity to the C57Bl/6 allele is significantly weaker.
Clonality
Monoclonal
Host
Rabbit
Isotype
IgG Kappa
Description
This conjugate is made on demand and is not held in inventory. Each order represents a unique lot. All conjugates are generated using validated conjugation protocols and meet strict degree of labeling (F/P) specifications; additional information is available upon request. The antibody concentration is provided on the individual product label.

Background: TIM-3
Dysregulation of TIM-3 expression is associated with autoimmune diseases as shown by studies where inhibition of TIM-3 using blocking antibodies worsened disease progression in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) models of multiple sclerosis (MS) (2,3,5). Conversely, high levels of TIM-3 have been shown during viral infection as well as in many cancer types where its increased expression may be an indicator of poor prognosis (2,3,5). TIM-3 has emerged as a potential cancer immunotherapy target as preclinical studies blocking TIM-3 results in increased anti-tumor immunity and prevents tumor growth (3,5). Studies have suggested combination therapy of TIM-3 blockade with blockade of other checkpoint inhibitors such as programmed death 1 (PD-1) or lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) is more effective than TIM-3 blockade alone (3,5).
