CD79a antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN118795

Product Details anti-CD79a Antibody (FITC)

Target: CD79a (CD79A) (B-cell antigen receptor complex-associated protein alpha chain (CD79A))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD79a antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: This antibody reacts with CD79a positive cells by flow cytometry. This clone has been reported to be useful in distinguishing B-CLL from mantle cell lymphoma in flow cytometric assays.

Immunogen: IgM complex isolated from Daudi cells. Spleen cells from immunised BALB/c mice were fused with cells of the mouse NS1 myeloma cell line.

Clone: ZL7-4

Isotype: IgG1

Target Details for CD79a

Target: CD79a (CD79A) (B-cell antigen receptor complex-associated protein alpha chain (CD79A))

Alternative Name: CD79a (CD79A Products)

Background: A disulfide-linked heterodimer, consisting of CD79a / mb1 and CD79b / B29 polypeptides, is non-covalently associated with membrane bound immunoglobulins on B cells to constitute the B cell Ag receptor. CD79a first appears at pre B cell stage and persists until the plasma cell stage where it is found as an intracellular component. CD79a is found in the majority of acute leukemias of precursor B cell type, in B cell lines, B cell lymphomas, and in some myelomas. The CD79a/b heterodimer interacts with at least one tyrosine kinase (Lyn). Induction of tyrosine kinase activity after antigen binding causes phosphorylation of the CD79a/b dimer, and also of other molecules, thereby initiating intracellular signaling.Synonyms: B-Cell marker, B-cell antigen receptor complex-associated protein alpha-chain, IGA, MB-1 membrane glycoprotein, MB1, Membrane-bound immunoglobulin-associated protein, Surface IgM-associated protein
