Product Specific Information

This antibody recognizes the ovine homologue of the human MHC Class I, a monomorphic determinant expressed on the heavy chain of sheep MHC Class I, (OLA Class I). The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a cluster of genes that are important in the immune response to infections.

Target Information

Like their mammalian counterparts, avian MHC Class I molecules, also known as B-F antigens, consist of a highly polymorphic alpha-chain noncovalently bound to the invariant beta2-microglobulin subunit. MHC Class I molecules are expressed on most nucleated cells where they present endogenously synthesized antigenic peptides to CD8+ T lymphocytes, which are usually cytotoxic T cells. The monoclonal antibody F21-2 also reacts with turkey MHC Class I.

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.
