Overview
Product Description | Mouse Monoclonal antibody [B2M-01] recognizes beta 2 Microglobulin |
---|---|
Tested Reactivity | Hu |
Species Does Not React With | Ms, Bov, Chk, Dog, Rb |
Tested Application | ELISA, FACS, ICC/IF, IHC-P, IP, RIA, WB |
Specificity | The clone B2M-01 reacts with beta2-microglobulin (beta2M) associated with cell-surface MHC Class I molecules and other membrane antigens as well as with soluble beta2-microglobulin. Beta2M is a 12 kDa Ig like glycoprotein expressed on lymphocytes, thymocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, platelets, endothelial cells and epithelial cells. It is absent on erythrocytes. |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Application Note | IP: The B2M-01 coprecipitates beta2-microglobulin (12 kDa) and HLA antigens (45 kDa) from the lysates of human lymphoid cells. WB: Sample preparation: Resuspend approx. 50 mil. cells in 1 ml cold Lysis buffer (1% laurylmaltoside in 20 mM Tris/Cl, 100 mM NaCl pH 8.2, 50 mM NaF including Protease inhibitor Cocktail). Incubate 60 min on ice. Centrifuge to remove cell debris. Mix lysate with non-reducing/reducing Laemmli SDS-PAGE sample buffer. Application note: Both reducing and non-reducing condition. RIA: The dissociation constant of the antibody soluble beta2-microglobulin is 1.5 x 10-8 mol/l as determined by competitive RIA. * The dilutions indicate recommended starting dilutions and the optimal dilutions or concentrations should be determined by the scientist. |

Gene Symbol | B2M |
Gene Full Name | beta-2-microglobulin |
Background | Beta2-microglobulin non-covalently associates with the 44 kDa alpha chain to forms the HLA Class I antigen complex. Human beta2-microglobulin associated with HLA Class I antigens is expressed on many types of cells including lymphocytes, thymocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, platelets, endothelial cells, and epithelial cells. It is absent on erythrocytes. |
Function | Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system. [UniProt] |
Research Area | Cancer antibody; Cell Biology and Cellular Response antibody |
Calculated MW | 14 kDa |
PTM | Glycation of Ile-21 is observed in long-term hemodialysis patients. |
