Key features and details | |
Cat. No. | MABL-1895 |
Name | Anti-Human A-type (A1; A2) erythrocytes mAbs |
Clone No. | AFD- W6/1 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | IP |
Species Reactivity | Human |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | W6/1 binds to A1 and A2 erythrocytes and does not bind to B or O erythrocytes (detects a polymorphic determinant of erythrocytes correlating with blood group A). When saturating amounts of secondary antibody are used, binding of W6/1 is 5 times as great on type A1 than A2. |
Alternative Name | |
UniProt | |
Immunogen | W6/1 was prepared by immunizing BALB/c mice with membrane from human tonsil cells (present as a result of contaminating erythrocyte membrane in the tonsil leucocyte preparation). |
Application Notes | W6/1 antibody can be used as an erythrocyte cell type marker and can cause hemogglutination of A-type erythrocytes. |
