Description
The YLI-90 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with the B6 alloantigen of Ly-49I, an inhibitory receptor which is expressed on subsets of natural killer (NK) cells, NK-1.1+ (or DX5+) T lymphocytes (NK-T cells), and on a population of memory CD8+ T lymphocytes in C57BL/6 mice, but not AKR/J, BALB/c, DBA/1, or SJL mice. The Ly-49 family of NK-cell receptors are disulfide-linked type-II transmembrane protein homodimers with extracellular carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRD). Ly-49I is closely related to Ly-49C[B6] and Ly49C[BALB], and these three alloantigens are recognized by mAb 5E6 (Cat. No. 553277). A Ly-49I[BALB] allele has not been found. The Ly-49 family members are expressed independently, such that an individual NK or T cell may display more than one class of Ly-49 receptor homodimers. Binding of Ly-49I-expressing transfectants to cell lines bearing MHC class I antigens of the b,d, k and s haplotypes was not detected. In contrast, Ly-49I-expressing transfectants were found to weakly bind lymphoblasts of the b, d, k, q, s, and v haplotypes and to strongly bind H-2[r] lymphoblasts. Ly-49I-bearing NK cells may mediate allogeneic and hybrid resistance to transplantation of H-2[d] bone marrow.
