Key Product Details

Species Reactivity

Human

Applications

Flow Cytometry

Label

PE/Cy5.5 (Excitation = 488 nm, Emission = 695 nm)

Antibody Source

Monoclonal Mouse IgG1 Clone # MEM-E/08

Concentration

Please see the vial label for concentration. If unlisted please contact technical services.

Product Specifications

Immunogen

Bacterially expressed recombinant HLA-E refolded with beta2-microglobulin and peptide.

Localization

Type I membrane protein.

Specificity

This antibody (clone MEM-E/08) recognized native surface-expressed HLA-E, but not denaturated heavy chain of HLA-E. HLA-E belongs to the MHC Class I molecules (MHC Class Ib; nonclassical) and it is expressed on many types of the human cells. The results revealed that antibody is remarkably specific for HLA-E, only with weak cross-reactivity with following classical MHC Class I molecules (MHC Class Ia): HLA-A24, -B7, -B27, -B51, -B54, -C7.

Clonality

Monoclonal

Host

Mouse

Isotype

IgG1

Applications for MHC Class I Antibody (MEM-E/08) [PE/Cy5.5]

Application
Recommended Usage

Flow Cytometry

Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Application Notes
Optimal dilution of this antibody should be experimentally determined. For optimal results using our Tandem dyes, please avoid prolonged exposure to light or extreme temperature fluctuations. These can lead to irreversible degradation or decoupling. When staining intracellular targets, specific attention to the fixation and permeabilization steps in your flow protocol may be required. Please contact our technical support team at technical@novusbio.com if you have any questions.

Background: MHC Class I

The antigenic agglomerate major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules present antigenic peptides to CD8-positive T cells. It is now recognized that the products of the MHC genes are antigen-presenting molecules (APM) designed for the presentation of antigen fragments (peptides) to the T-cell receptor, thus participating in the immune response (1). Recently shown is a mechanism of antigen acquisition for cross-presentation that couples the antigen presentation system of two adjacent cells and is lost in most tumours: gap-junction-mediated intercellular peptide coupling for presentation by bystander MHC class I molecules and transfer to professional antigen presenting cells for cross-priming (2). The mammalian vomeronasal organ detects social information about gender, status, and individuality. It has been shown that small peptides that serve as ligands for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules function also as sensory stimuli for a subset of vomeronasal sensory neurons located in the basal Gao- and V2R receptor-expressing zone of the vomeronasal epithelium (3).
