Product Description
Mouse monoclonal antibody raised against native HLA-B.
Immunogen
Native purified from lymphocytes of HLA-B27 individual.
Host
Mouse
Reactivity
Human
Specificity
EP-4 recognizes the HLA-B27 cell surface antigen on human cells. Since EP-4 recognizes the HLA-B27 antigen, it may be used to HLA type human lymphoctyes. Approximately 60% of patients with ankylosing spondylitis are HLA-B27 positive. This reagent can be used to help identify this HLA haplotype in human lymphocytes. Monoclonal antibody EP-4 recognizes the HLA-B27 antigen expressed on individuals with this HLA haplotype.

HyperlinkGene Summary
HLA-B belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. This class I molecule is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain and a light chain (beta-2 microglobulin). The heavy chain is anchored in the membrane. Class I molecules play a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from the endoplasmic reticulum lumen. They are expressed in nearly all cells. The heavy chain is approximately 45 kDa and its gene contains 8 exons. Exon 1 encodes the leader peptide, exon 2 and 3 encode the alpha1 and alpha2 domains, which both bind the peptide, exon 4 encodes the alpha3 domain, exon 5 encodes the transmembrane region and exons 6 and 7 encode the cytoplasmic tail. Polymorphisms within exon 2 and exon 3 are responsible for the peptide binding specificity of each class one molecule. Typing for these polymorphisms is routinely done for bone marrow and kidney transplantation. Hundreds of HLA-B alleles have been described. [provided by RefSeq
