Anti-Blood Group Antigen A (CD173), clone 33C13

Formulation: Purified Ab with BSA and Azide at 200ug/ml. Cellular Localization: Golgi apparatus, Golgi stack membrane, Secreted. Positive Control: KG1 cells or human colorectal carcinoma tissues. Chromosome Location: 9q34.2. Protein Function: This protein is the basis of the ABO blood group system. The histo-blood group ABO involves three carbohydrate antigens: A, B, and H. A, B, and AB individuals express a glycosyltransferase activity that converts the H antigen to the A antigen (by addition of UDP-GalNAc) or to the B antigen (by addition of UDP-Gal), whereas O individuals lack such activity , Glycosyltransferase that catalyzes the transfer of carbohydrates to H antigen, forming the antigenic structures of the ABO blood group [The Uniprot Consortium]
