Anti-HLA-B7 Antibody, clone BB7.1, PE Conjugate

BIOCHEMISTRY: p I = 6.3

HLA-B belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. This class I molecule is a heterodimer consisting of a membrane-anchored heavy chain and a light chain (beta-2 microglobulin). HLA class I molecules play a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from the endoplasmic reticulum lumen and are expressed in nearly all cells. HLA-B7 is an HLA-B serotype. B7, previously HL-A7, is a serotype that identifies the more common HLA-B*07 gene products and was one of the first ′HL-A′ antigens recognized. B7 is a risk factor for cervical cancer, sarcoidosis, and early-onset spondylarthropathies.

The previously assigned protein identifier P03989 has been merged into P01889. Full details can be found on the UniProt database.

Binds to the HLA-B7 antigen. It does not bind to HLA-B27 or other related HLA antigens.
