Target Details

• Target: Human Leukocyte Antigen- A2
• Target background: Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) are highly polymorphic proteins that are involved in the presentation of antigens to the T-cell receptor. There are two classes of HLA antigens, class I (HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C) and class II (HLA-D). The polymorphic HLA-A, -B, -C glycoproteins have a molecular weight of 43,000 daltons and are expressed on the surfaces of nearly all somatic cells, except red blood cells. This antibody can be used for HLA typing. Anti-HLA-A2 BB7.2 antibody recognizes human leukocyte antigen (HLA) A2 which is a subset of MHC-class I molecules encoded by the A.02 allele. It recognises an epitope at the C-terminus of alpha-2 helix and a turn on one of the underlying beta strands. Anti-HLA-A2 BB7.2 binds to an epitope at the C-terminus of the alpha-2 helix within the human HLA-A2 histocompatibility antigen. This antibody has exhibited blocking activity. Anti-HLA monoclonal antibodies can help identify in vitro translation production from HLA region mRNA, alongside isolating specific mRNA via precipitation or binding of polysomes. Anti-HLA-A2 can aid study within the immune response, including the presentation of foreign antigens to the immune system.
