    Product Information

    Product Description

    This Cell Signaling Technology® antibody is conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorescent dye. This antibody conjugate is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity as the unconjugated MHC Class I (EMR8-5) Mouse mAb #88274.

    Product Usage Information

    Application Dilution
    Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) 1:50
    Flow Cytometry (Fixed/Permeabilized) 1:50

    Storage

    Supplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg/mL BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.

    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    MHC Class I (EMR8-5) Mouse mAb (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) detects HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, and HLA-E. This antibody does not cross-react with HLA-G.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with human HLA-A*2402 extracellular domain recombinant protein.

    Background

    The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system is a gene complex encoding the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins in humans. These cell surface proteins are responsible for the regulation of antigen-specific immunity in humans. HLA genes are highly polymorphic, allowing them to fine-tune the adaptive immune response. HLAs corresponding to MHC class I (HLA-A, B, and C) present small peptide antigens from inside the cell, approximately 8 to 10 amino acids in length, to CD8+ T lymphocytes in order to activate a cytotoxic T cell response. HLAs corresponding to MHC class II (HLA-DP, DM, DO, DQ, and DR) present antigens from outside of the cell, approximately 15 to 24 residues in length, to CD4+ T helper cells, which in turn secrete cytokines and stimulate B cells to produce antibodies to that specific antigen. HLAs corresponding to MHC class III encode components of the complement system (1,2).
