Target Details for beta-2 Microglobulin

Target: beta-2 Microglobulin (B2M) (beta-2-Microglobulin (B2M))

Alternative Name: beta-2-Microglobulin

Background: Beta-2 Microglobulin non-covalently associates with the 44 kDa alpha chain to form the HLA Class I antigen complex. Human beta 2 Microglobulin associated with HLA Class I antigens are expressed on many types of cells including lymphocytes, thymocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, platelets, endothelial cells, and epithelial cells. It is absent on erythrocytes.Synonyms: B2M, Beta 2 microglobulin, Beta-2 microglobulin
