HLA-DPB1 Recombinant Antibody (MHC II)

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.
