Overview
| Product Description | FITC-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal antibody [FMC7] recognizes B Cells Mouse anti Human B cells antibody, clone FMC7 recognizes a glycoprotein antigen of ~105 kDa expressed by B lymphocytes. The FMC7 antigen is expressed by peripheral B lymphocytes, and has been used widely in the study of B cell malignancy. Mouse anti Human B cells antibody, clone FMC7 has been used extensively to differentiate various types of B cell malignancy. B-CLL is generally considered to be negative for FMC7 expression, but strong staining is seen in many other types of B cell lymphoma, including prolymphocytic leukaemia and hairy cell leukaemia.The nature of the FMC7 antigen has remained poorly defined following its first description in 1981. The expression pattern closely corresponds to that seen with CD22, but studies have shown that FMC7 does not recognise the CD22 molecule itself. Mouse anti Human B cells antibody, clone FMC7 recognizes a conformational epitope on the CD20 molecule, most likely a multimeric complex of CD20 (Serke et al. 2001). Identity of CD20 as the antigen recognized by Mouse anti Human B cells antibody, clone FMC7 was further confirmed by strong recognition of recombinant CD20 expressed in hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cell lines and abolishion of binding in CD20 extracellular domain mutations. The recognized epitope has also been shown to be cholesterol dependent (Polyak et al. 2003). |

| Gene Symbol | MS4A1 |
| Gene Full Name | membrane-spanning 4-domains, subfamily A, member 1 |
| Background | This gene encodes a member of the membrane-spanning 4A gene family. Members of this nascent protein family are characterized by common structural features and similar intron/exon splice boundaries and display unique expression patterns among hematopoietic cells and nonlymphoid tissues. This gene encodes a B-lymphocyte surface molecule which plays a role in the development and differentiation of B-cells into plasma cells. This family member is localized to 11q12, among a cluster of family members. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants which encode the same protein.
