HLA-DQ Monoclonal Antibody (SK10), FITC, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen 11988142

Catalog No. 50-245-249

Description

Description: This SK10 monoclonal antibody reacts with the human MHC Class II HLA-DQ molecule. This cell surface receptor is a heterodimeric protein composed of an alpha (HLA-DQA1) and beta (HLA-DQB1) subunit. HLA-DQ is expressed on antigen presenting cells such as B cells, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and activated T cells. HLA-DQ plays a role in presenting peptide antigens to CD4+ T lymphocytes. Reports indicate that certain alleles of HLA-DQ are associated with celiac disease and type I diabetes. Applications Reported: This SK10 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This SK10 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 μL (0.125 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. Excitation: 488 nm; Emission: 520 nm; Laser: Blue Laser. Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered.

HLA-DQ is one of the HLA (human leukocyte antigen) molecules belonging to class II of the major histocompatibility protein (MHC) surface proteins. HLA-DQ and the other MHC class II molecules are heterodimeric proteins consisting of an alpha (DQA) and a beta chain (DQB), both anchored in the membrane. They play a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from extracellular proteins. MHC Class II molecules are expressed in antigen-presenting cells (APC: B lymphocytes, dendritic cells, macrophages) and present peptides endocytosed, digested, and loaded onto the proteins prior to their migration to the cell surface. Other human MHC class II molecules are HLA-DP, HLA-DM, HLA-DR, HLA-DOA, and HLA-DOB. HLA-DQ displays significant variability, particularly in the beta subunit within the region that affects the peptides bound and presented by the protein. Different classes of DQ based on similar beta subunits allow for the grouping of these variants into serotypes, which can often be recognized by antibodies raised against these subunits.
