| Description | Novus Biologicals Rabbit CD25/IL-2R alpha Antibody (Basiliximab) - Chimeric - Azide and BSA Free (NBP2-52661) is a recombinant monoclonal antibody validated for use in IHC, WB, Flow and ICC/IF. All Novus Biologicals antibodies are covered by our 100% guarantee. |
| Additional Information | Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody. |
| Immunogen | Basiliximab was prepared by immunizing BALB/c mice with CTC 16 cells. |
| Specificity | Basiliximab recognises the human IL-2R and binds to the epitope (116)ERIYHFV(122) within the extracellular domain of the CD25 subunit -binding is abolished when 2 or more residues within the epitope are mutated. This epitope overlaps with the interaction site of CD25 and IL-2. CD25 is found in the high-affinity IL-2R ((alpha)(beta)(gamma)c) -T cells only express CD25 upon activation. IL-2 binding to IL-2R on T cells modulates proliferation and differentiation. |

| Application Notes | This antibody is Cytof ready. This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Human IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques. Basiliximab is derived from the murine anti-Tac antibody. For the clinically used format, the variable regions from this antibody were grafted onto the sequence of the human IgG1 kappa constant regions. Basiliximab binding to CD25 competitively blocks the interaction of IL-2R with its ligand IL-2 on the surface of T cells. Blocking this interaction prevents T cell replication and T cell-mediated B cell activation. Basiliximab binding suppresses the immune system and inhibits the pathway activating the cellular immune response to allograft rejection. IL-2 signalling suppression can additionally prevent acute graft-versus-host disease, autoimmune disorders and malignancies such as T cell leukemias (Binder et al, 2007). Basiliximab has also been used in FC, IF, IHC and WB studies, which enables the detection of CD25. |
