Anti-CD20 Functional Antibody
Anti-CD20 Functional Antibody is a chimeric monoclonal antibody that recognizes human CD20. The antibody features the constant region of the human IgG1 isotype and the mouse variable region of rituximab (amino acids 142-184) . This antibody is cytotoxic to WIL2-S cells in the presence of the rabbit complement system. The recombinant antibody was affinity purified.

Background
CD20 is present in the membrane of mature, normal, and abnormal B cells, but not in immature B cells. This expression pattern made it an attractive target for antibody-based lymphoma treatment as immature B cells will not be affected and can replenish the B cell population. Rituximab was the first anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody to reach the clinic, and since its commercialization it has led to a decrease in the number of deaths due to B cell malignancy.
