Quick Overview for beta-2 Microglobulin antibody (CF®568) (ABIN6175110)

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

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Product Details anti-beta-2 Microglobulin Antibody (CF®568)

Purpose: Mouse Monoclonal anti-Beta-2 Microglobulin (B2M) (246-E9.E7), CF568 Conjugate

Characteristics: This antibody recognizes a protein of 12 kDa, identified asβ2-microglobulin.β2-microglobulin non-covalently associates with the 44 kDa chain to form the HLA Class I antigen complex. Human β2-microglobulin associated with HLA Class I antigens is expressed on many types of cells including lymphocytes, thymocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, platelets, endothelial cells, and epithelial cells. It is absent on erythrocytes. This MAb is specific to human β2-microglobulin and does not react with non-human primate cells. This antibody reacts with all cell types excluding erythrocytes. The detection of β2-microglobulin in body fluids has been used as a tumor marker and for monitoring patients with HIV infection. Clone 246 E9.E7 is the same as HLA.ABC.m2. Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF® dyes and other labels. CF® dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF®405S and CF®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.

Immunogen: Human PBLs from a T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) patient
