Retinoblastoma Gene Protein antibody

Antigen: Retinoblastoma Gene Protein

Clonality: Monoclonal (1F8)

Host: Mouse

Reactivity: Human

Application: Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Catalog no.: ABIN106535

Additional Information

Alternative name: Retinoblastoma Gene Protein (Rb)

Immunogen: Purified receptor for the C3d fragment of the third complement component CR2, from human tonsil.

Format: Supernatant (prediluted)

Isotype: IgG1 kappa  (Matching secondary antibodies)

Clone: 1F8

Specificity: This antibody reacts with CD21 antigen of MW 145 kD, present on the surface of mature B cells. The antigen is present at high density on follicular dendritic cells. CD21 is involved in transmitting growth-promoting signals to the interior of the B cell.

Application Details

Application Notes: Staining Protocol: We suggest an incubation period of 30 minutes at room temperature. However, depending upon the fixation conditions and the staining system employed, optimal incubation should be determined by the user. Suitable for formalin/paraffin tissues. Positive Control: Tonsil. Cellular localization: Cell membrane

Concentration: 1 to 4 ug/ml

Buffer: This antibody has been pretitered and quality controlled to work on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded as well as acetone fixed cryostat tissue sections. No further titration is required.

Storage: Store the antibody at 2-8o c. Do not use it beyond the expiration date stated on the label.

Research Area: Cancer, Transcription Factors

Restrictions: For Research Use. CE-certified for In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Use in the European Union
