HLA-B Antibody (Center)
This class I molecule is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain
and a light chain (beta-2 microglobulin). The heavy chain is
anchored in the membrane. Class I molecules play a central role in
the immune system by presenting peptides derived from the
endoplasmic reticulum lumen. They are expressed in nearly all
cells. The heavy chain is approximately 45 kDa and its gene
contains 8 exons. Exon 1 encodes the leader peptide, exon 2 and 3
encode the alpha1 and alpha2 domains, which both bind the peptide,
exon 4 encodes the alpha3 domain, exon 5 encodes the transmembrane
region and exons 6 and 7 encode the cytoplasmic tail. Polymorphisms
within exon 2 and exon 3 are responsible for the peptide binding
specificity of each class one molecule. Typing for these
polymorphisms is routinely done for bone marrow and kidney
transplantation. Hundreds of HLA-B alleles have been described.

Product Notes
The HLA-B hla-b (Catalog #AAA9207147) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 182-208. The HLA-B Antibody (Center) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's HLA-B can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA). WB~~1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HLA-B hla-b for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "HLA-B, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
