Overview

  • Product nameAnti-HLA DP antibody [B7/21]See all HLA DP primary antibodies ...
  • Description
    Mouse monoclonal [B7/21] to HLA DP
  • SpecificityRecognizes a (Mr 26-34 kDa) class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigen. Recognizes a monomorphic determinant present on cells expressing DP1, DP2, DP3, DP4, and DP5. The HLA-DP antigen is present on approximately 10% of normal peripheral blood lymphocytes but not on resting peripheral T-lymphocytes. HLA-DP is present in low density on peripheral blood monocytes and mitogen-stimulated T-lymphoblasts. Anti-HLA-DP reacts with most B-cell lines.

Target

  • RelevanceHLA-DPA1 belongs to the HLA class II alpha chain paralogues. This class II molecule is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha (DPA) and a beta (DPB) chain, both anchored in the membrane. It plays a vital role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from extracellular proteins. Class II molecules are expressed in antigen presenting cells (B lymphocytes, dendritic cells and macrophages). Within the DP molecule the alpha and beta chain contain the polymorphisms governing the peptide binding specificities, resulting in up to 4 different molecules.

  • Overlay histogram showing RAMOS cells stained with ab20897(red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab20897, 1µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG3 [MG3-35](ab18394, 2µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed.
    Please note that Abcam do not have any data for use of this antibody on non-fixed cells. We welcome any customer feedback.

Thank you very much for your reply.

The binding affinity and mechanism varies between blocking antibodies, butthey do seem to generally act as antagonists. These kinds of characteristics need to be determined for each individual antibody and ant...
