Recognizes a non-polymorphic determinant of DP-MHC class II. MHC class II antigens are transmembrane glycoproteins of non-covalently linked alpha (33-35kDa) and beta (27-30kDa) chains. It reportedly reacts with B- & non-T, non-B cell lines but not with T- and myeloid cell lines and leukemias. Differential expression of MHC class II antigens on fetal and adult lymphocytes, malignant B cells appears to reflect the stage of cell differentiation which may be useful in the study of lymphoproliferative disorders.

Optimal dilution of the recombinant HLA-DPB1 antibody should be determined by the researcher.

Non-T, non-B human acute lymphoblastic leukemia REH6 cell line was used as the immunogen for the recombinant HLA-DPB1 antibody.

Store the recombinant HLA-DPB1 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
