| Brand: | Exbio |
| Product no.: | 10-621-C100 |
| Product type: | Primary antibodies |
| Host species: | Rat |
| Product name: | Rat Monoclonal to MHC Class II (mouse) |
| Antigen: | MHC Class II (mouse) |
| Clonality: | Monoclonal |
| Clone: | M5/114 |
| Isotype: | IgG2b |
| Immunogen: | Activated C57BL/6 mouse spleen cells_x000D_ |
| Format: | azide free |
| Specificity: | The rat monoclonal antibody M5/114 reacts with murine MHC class II glycoproteins. It recognizes a shared determinant on I-Ab, I-Ad, I-Aq, and I-Ed, I-Ek alloantigens, but it does not react with I-Af, I-Ak, I-As. This antibody can inhibit I-A-restricted T cell responses of the H-2b, H-2d, H-2q, H-2u but not H-2f, H-2k, H-2s haplotypes. _x000D_ |

| Storage buffer: | Azide free phosphate buffered saline (PBS), approx. pH 7.4; 0.2 μm filter sterilized. |
| Storage / stability: | Store at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Do not use after expiration date stamped on vial label. |
| Background: | 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. _x000D_ |
