beta 2-Microglobulin Antibody (246-E9.E7 (same as HLA.ABC.m2)) [DyLight 550] Summary

• Description: This conjugate is made on demand. Actual recovery may vary from the stated volume of this product. The volume will be greater than or equal to the unit size stated on the datasheet.
• Immunogen: Human PBL s from a T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) patient
• Localization: Cell Surface and Extracellular (Secreted)
• Marker: Renal Failure & Tumor Marker
• Specificity: Recognizes a protein of 12kDa, identified as beta-microglobulin. Beta--microglobulin non-covalently associates with the 44kDa chain to form the HLA Class I antigen complex. Human beta-2 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 monoclonal antibody is specific to human beta-2 microglobulin and does not react with non-human primate cells. This antibody reacts with all cell types excluding erythrocytes. Detection of beta-2 microglobulin in body fluids has been used as a tumor marker and for monitoring patients with HIV infection.
