The antibody G233 recognizes several isoforms of HLA-G expressed in all populations of extravillous trophoblast (cell columns, interstitial trophoblast, endovascular trophoblast, placental bed giant cells). HLA-G belongs to the nonclassical MHC Class I molecules (MHC Class Ib). The antibody G233 has been found not to cross-react with any other MHC Class I antigens (HLA-A, -B, -C, -E, -F).

Background
HLA G belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. It is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain (with a1, a2, a3 domains) and a light chain (beta 2 microglobulin). Alternate splicing provides both soluble and membrane bound forms of HLA G, with two soluble isoforms and four membrane bound isoforms. HLA G may be part of the fetal protection system and is expressed on fetal derived placental cells.Synonyms: HLA class I histocompatibility antigen, HLA-6.0, HLAG, MHC class I antigen G
