Integrin beta 2 antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN94008

Product Details anti-Integrin beta 2 Antibody (FITC)

Target: Integrin beta 2 (ITGB2)

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Integrin beta 2 antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The antibody MEM-48 recognizes an extracellular epitope involving residues 534-546 in cysteine-rich repeat 3 of the CD18 antigen (integrin beta2 subunit, beta2 integrin). CD18 is a 90-95 kDa type I transmembrane protein expressed on all leukocytes.

No Cross-Reactivity: Dog

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: Leukocytes of a patient suffering from a LGL-type leukemia.

Clone: MEM-48

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 20 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (2 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Comment:

The purified antibody is conjugated with Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions. The reagent is free of unconjugated FITC and adjusted for direct use. No reconstitution is necessary.

Background: Integrin subunit beta 2,CD18, integrin beta2 subunit, forms heterodimers with four types of CD11 Molecule to constitute leukocyte (beta2) integrins: alphaLbeta2 (CD11a/CD18, LFA-1), alphaMbeta2 (CD11b/CD18, Mac-1, CR3), alphaXbeta2 (CD11c/CD18) and alphaDbeta2 (CD11d/CD18). In most cases, the response mediated by the integrin is a composite of the functions of its individual subunits. These integrins are essential for proper leukocyte migration, mediating intercellular contacts. Absence of CD18 leads to leukocyte adhesion deficiency-1, severe reduction of CD18 expression leads to the development of a psoriasiform skin disease. CD18 is also a target of Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica leukotoxin and is sufficient to mediate leukotoxin-mediated cytolysis.,Integrin beta2, Complement receptor C3 subunit beta, ITGB2
