CD8A is an important immune glycoprotein that acts as a coreceptor for class I MHC:peptide complexes, linking T cells to antigens presented by APCs. It interacts with TCR and MHC class I, recruits LCK kinase, and initiates multiple signaling pathways. CD
Molecular Weight:
The protein migrates as 27-35 kDa under reducing SDS-PAGE due to glycosylation.
