Anti-KLRA1 KLRA1P Antibody

KLRA1 (also known as Ly49L) is a member of the LY49 family of receptors in Natural Killer (NK) cells that bind to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class 1. These proteins are classified as either activating or inhibitory receptors based on whether they possess an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) in their cytoplasmic region (for inhibitory receptors), or an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) that transmits activating signals resulting in phosphorylation of several substrates. KLRA1 is thought to be an activating receptor, inducing DAP12 phosphorylation in response to antibody-mediated cross-linking of KLRA1 on NK cells.

KLRA1 antibody was raised against a 13 amino acid synthetic peptide near the center of human KLRA1. The immunogen is located within amino acids 140 - 190 of KLRA1.

High expression in placenta, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas tissues. Absent or very faint expression in heart, brain, lung and liver. Expressed during adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (at protein level) .

KLRA1 antibody can be stored at 4°C for three months and -20°C, stable for up to one year. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
