AICDA Antibody (359218)

AICDA was detected in immersion fixed Ramos human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line using Rat Anti-Human AICDA Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB39102) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Rat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL013) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to surface and cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.

Background

AICDA, also known as AID, is a 24 kDa cytidine deaminase that converts deoxycytidine to deoxyuridine in single stranded DNA. Its expression is restricted to activated lymph node and tonsillar B cells and is required for terminal B cell differentiation. Loss of function mutations of AICDA cause severe humoral immunodeficiency by preventing immunoglobulin class switching and somatic hypermutation. Human AICDA shares 92% - 95% amino acid sequence identity with bovine, canine, and mouse AICDA.

Limitations

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Primary Antibodies are guaranteed for 1 year from date of receipt.
