Western Blotting (WB), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunoprecipitation (IP)
Specificity
The mouse monoclonal antibody GHI/75 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD85j / ILT2, an 110-120 kDa membrane glycoprotein expressed strongly on plasma cells, moderately on circulating B cells, and weakly on monocytes. It is also expressed on T cell and NK cell subsets (variable, individual).

Leukocyte immunoglobulin like receptor B1,CD85j, also known as ILT-2 (Ig-like transcript 2), LIR-1 (leukocyte Ig-like receptor 1), or LILRB1 (leukocyte Ig-like receptor B1), is a member of Ig superfamily transmembrane glycoproteins named CD85. The CD85j protein is expressed on several types of immune cells (plasma cells, B cells, monocytes, T and NK cell subsets) where it binds to MHC class I molecules on antigen-presenting cells and transduces a negative signal that inhibits stimulation of an immune response. It is thought to control inflammatory responses and cytotoxicity to help focus the immune response and limit autoreactivity.,ILT2, LIR1, MIR7, PIRB, ILT-2
