On past January 21 we received from you a dosis of the anti human HLA E monoclonal antibody (MEM-E/06) that we purchased aiming to monitor the surface expression of HLA E in cells infected with different viruses and uninfected cell controls. We performed flow cytometry labeling B lymphoblastoid and epithelial human cells with MEM-E in parallel with moab anti human HLA I A, B, C W6/32 from Serotec. The labelling pattern in the uninfected cells were similar for MEM-E/06 and W&/32, ( we can show you the Fascan profiles) and we were unable to monitor changes in HLA E expression upon virus infections. As you state in the MEM-E/06 datasheet it has been recently reported that this moab crossreact broadly with several HLA A, B and C. Could you please send me any suggestion to overcome this trouble? Thanking in advance your cooperation,

Thank you for your enquiry. We have sold several vials of this product and do not have any complaint. This is a very specific question. We would suggest, (together with FACS analysis) to lyse the same cells in native lysis buffer (1%NP-40 plus inhibitors) and then subjected to non-denaturing, non-reducing SDS-PAGE (even boiling should be omitted). Try to probe the WB blots with Ab2216 MEM-E/02 (absolutely HLA-E specific) and compare with W6/32 to see changes? We are going to release a new anti HLA-E antibodies for flow cytometry which is much more specific (very restricted cross-reactivity).
