anti-HLA Class I antibody [MEM-147] (PE)
anti-HLA Class I antibody [MEM-147] (PE) for Flow cytometry and Human
Immune System antibody
Overview
| Product Description | PE-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal antibody [MEM-147] recognizes HLA Class I |
|---|---|
| Tested Reactivity | Hu |
| Tested Application | FACS |
| Specificity | The clone MEM-147 reacts with all human classical MHC Class I molecules in native cell-surface forms (e.g. it recognizes native HLA-A2 in cytofluorometry and immunoprecipitation but not in Western blotting). MHC Class I molecules (MHC Class Ia) are expressed on the surface of all human nucleated cell types. MEM-147 is positive in Western blotting (non-reducing conditions) only with most HLA-B and HLA-C molecules, but not HLA-A. Reactivity is very similar to the classical antibody W6/32. |

Swiss-port # P30443 Human HLA class I histocompatibility antigen, A-1 alpha chain |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | HLA-A |
| Gene Full Name | major histocompatibility complex, class I, A |
| Background | HLA-class I major histocompatibility (MHC) antigens are intrinsic membrane glycoproteins expressed on nucleated cells and noncovalently associated with an invariant beta2 microglobulin. They carry foreign determinants important for immune recognition by cytotoxic T cells, thus important for anti-viral and anti-tumour defence. Human HLA-class I antigens are represented by HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C molecules. |
| Function | Involved in the presentation of foreign antigens to the immune system. [UniProt] |
| Research Area | Immune System antibody |
| Calculated MW | 40 kDa |
| PTM | Polyubiquitinated in a post ER compartment by interaction with human herpesvirus 8 MIR1 protein. This targets the protein for rapid degradation via the ubiquitin system (By similarity). |
