Anti-HLA-DRw52, clone 7.3.19.1 (Monoclonal) [Mouse]

The antibody reacts with a polymorphic determinant on HLA-DR molecules which is associated with DR3, DR5, and DRw6 (DRw52-like). It does not react with DRw8. The antibody reacts with part of the HLA-D molecules (29+34 kD). The determinant is strongly expressed on DR3 positive cells and more weakly on DR5 and DRw6 positive cells. The antibody is useful for HLA-DR typing and biochemical characterization of the DR52w positive molecules and functio¬nal studies. Cross reacts with Chimpanzee, Macaca-apes and gorilla.
