anti-HLA-A Antibody (Clone # 7G7F9)

HLA-A

HLA-A; HLAA; HLA class I histocompatibility antigen, A-3 alpha chain; MHC class I antigen A*3

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules form an integral part of the immune response system. They are cell-surface receptors that bind peptides and present them to T lymphocytes. Human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) are polymorphic members of the MHC family that are specifically involved in the presentation of antigens to the T cell receptor. There are two classes of HLA antigens: class I (HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C) and class II (HLA-D). Class I molecules are expressed in nearly all cells and play a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from the endoplasmic reticulum. The differential structural properties of MHC class I and class II molecules account for their respective roles in activating different populations of T lymphocytes. HLA-A encodes a membrane anchored heavy chain which hetero-dimerizes with a light chain (b-2-Microglobulin) to form MHC-I. Polymorphisms yield hundreds of HLA-A alleles.
