Glycophorin A (GYPA) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: M2A1]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	M2A1
Applications	ELISA, Inhib
Reactivity	Human
Host	Rabbit
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	M2A1 was prepared by immunzing BALB/c mice with human red blood cells of the M phenotype, and was screened by testing for anti-M activity.
Specificity	M2A1 binds specifically to the M antigen on human erythrocytes, and shows no reactivity to N antigen. The epitope for this antibody includes the amino-terminal serine residue and sialic acid residues of glycophorin A. The reactivity of M2A1 for M antigen is pH- and salt-dependent (optimum ~ pH8-9). Blood group antigen M is located on the major sialoglycoprotein (glycophorin A) of red blood cells. M2A1 can bind to M antigen of glycophorin A and can be used in ELISAs, immunoblots and modified M glycoprotein can be used for inhibition tests.
Isotype	IgG, kappa
Formulation	PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Concentration	lot specific
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Please store at 4°C for up to 3 months. For longer storage, aliquot and store at -20°C. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
Gene Name	glycophorin A (MNS blood group)
Database Link	Entrez Gene 2993 Human UniProt ID P02724
Synonyms	CD235a; GPA; GPErik; GpMiIII; GPSAT; HGpMiIII; HGpMiV; HGpMiX; HGpMiXI; HGpSta(C); MN; MNS; PAS-2
Note	This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG1 format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
