Description: The HIS19 monoclonal antibody reacts with a polymorphic epitope of the rat MHC class II molecule, RT1B. This antibody reacts with all rat haplotypes except the RT1n (including BN and MAXX strains). The rat MHC class II (I-A equivalent), RT1B, is expressed by antigen presenting cells including B cells, dendritic cells and macrophages.
Applications Reported: The HIS19 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested: The HIS19 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of rat spleen or lymph node cell suspensions. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.
MHC (major histocompatibility complex) class II molecules are transmembrane glycoproteins expressed on the surface of professional antigen-presenting cells, such as macrophages, dendritic cells and B cells. Before their exposition on the cell surface, the MHC class II molecules react with endocytosed exogenous antigens, which are then presented to the T cells. The antigen-binding grove between MHC class II alpha and beta chain is open at both ends and is 15-24 amino acid residues long.
HLA and MHC antibodies play a significant role in Immunopeptidomics, facilitating the identification and characterization of neoantigens through high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem Mass Spectrometry.
