HLA class II histocompatibility antigen, DRB1-1 beta chain, MHC class II antigen DRB1*1, DR-1, DR1, HLA-DRB1
HLA-DRB1 belongs to the HLA class II beta chain paralogs. The class II molecule is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha (DRA) and a beta chain (DRB), both anchored in the membrane. It plays a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from extracellular proteins. Class II molecules are expressed in antigen presenting cells (APC: B lymphocytes, dendritic cells, macrophages). The beta chain is approximately 26-28 kDa. It is encoded by 6 exons.
Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed.
Target:
The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP6885a was selected from the N-term region of human HLA-DRB1. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay.
