The Mouse Monoclonal anti-Integrin beta 2 antibody (Clone WT-3) (ABIN120420) specifically detects Integrin beta 2 in FACS, WB, IP and Func.
The antibody is reactive with Rat samples.
This antibody reacts with the beta 2 integrin, which is designated CD18. The beta 2 integrin may be associated with the integrin alphaL, alphaX or alphaM subunits. Clone WT.3 has been shown to inhibit homotypic aggregation of PHA blasts. It also blocks binding of rat lymphocytes to purified rat ICAM-1. SM264A is recommended for this purpose.
