Overview

Product Description Mouse Monoclonal antibody [B2M-02] recognizes beta 2 Microglobulin
Tested Reactivity Hu, Pig
Tested Application ELISA, FACS, IHC-P, WB
Specificity The clone B2M-02 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._x000D_
Host Mouse
Clonality Monoclonal
Clone B2M-02
Isotype IgG1
Target Name beta 2 Microglobulin
Antigen Species Human
Immunogen Purified isolated human beta2-microglobulin.
Conjugation Un-conjugated
Alternate Names Beta-2-microglobulin

Tested Application Dilution
ELISAAssay-dependent
FACS1 µg/ml
IHC-P5 µg/ml
WB2 - 4 µg/ml
Application Note 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).

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.
