KEL antibody

Catalog No. ABIN111374

The Mouse Monoclonal anti-KEL antibody has been validated for H, EIA, IHC (fro) and AGG. It is suitable to detect KEL in samples from Human.

Quick Overview for KEL antibody (ABIN111374)

Target: KEL (Kell Blood Group, Metallo-Endopeptidase (KEL))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This KEL antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Haemagglutination (H), Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA), Immunohistochemistry (Frozen Sections) (IHC (fro)), Aggregation (AGG)

Clone: BRIC203

Product Details anti-KEL Antibody

Specificity: This antibody recognises CD238, also known as the kell blood group antigen Kpbc. The kell blood group antigens are carried on a 93 kDa erythrocyte membrane glycoprotein. In haemaggulation tests, BRIC203 reacts with Kp (a-b+) but not Kp (a+b-). In addition this antibody will agglutinate Kp (a+b-c+) and Kp (a-b-c+) erythrocytes but not react with Ko Erythrocytes.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Species reactivity (tested):Human.

Purification: Affinity Chromatography on Protein G

Immunogen: Human Erythrocytes. Spleen cells from immunised Balb/c were fused with cells of a myeloma cell line.

Isotype: IgG1

Target Details for KEL

Target: KEL (Kell Blood Group, Metallo-Endopeptidase (KEL))

Alternative Name: CD238 / KEL

Background: Blood Group Kell Antigen is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein. The Kell glycoprotein links to the XK membrane protein, that carries the Kx antigen via a single disulfide bond. The encoded protein contains sequence and structural similarity to members of the neprilysin (M13) family of zinc endopeptidases.Synonyms: Kell blood group glycoprotein
