Fusion Partners
Spleen cells from immunised BALB/c mice were fused with cells of the mouse P3UI myeloma cell line.
Specificity
MCA1584 recognises the human CD158b cell surface antigen, a 58kD glycoprotein expressed by a subset of NK cells (also known as p58.2 antigen).

This antibody also recognises a 50kD molecule, which is highly homologous to p58.2 in the extracellular domain, but has a shorter cytoplasmic tail.

Both molecules are members of the newly described natural killer cell receptor family.

CD158b functions as a receptor specific for HLA Class I molecules, including Cw3 and related HLA-C alleles. This antibody can restore the lysis by human NK clones of otherwise lysis protected targets expressing Cw3.
Flow Cytometry
Use 10ul of the suggested working dilution to label 106 cells in 100ul. Method sheets are available on request.

Storage
Store at +4oC or at -20oC if preferred.

This product should be stored undiluted.

Storage in frost free freezers is not recommended. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life
18 months from date of despatch.
Health And Safety Information
(A full Health and Safety assessment is available upon request) This product contains sodium azide: a POISONOUS AND HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCE which should be handled by trained staff only.
