HLA-DRB1 Antibody DA2 / HLA-DR Beta Chain Antibody recognizes an HLA-DR beta-chain determinant associated with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen-presentation system. HLA-DR molecules consist of an HLA-DRA-encoded alpha chain associated with a beta chain encoded by an HLA-DRB gene. The assembled heterodimer binds antigen-derived peptides and displays them for recognition by CD4-positive T cells, making HLA-DR a central component of adaptive immune responses.
HLA-DRB1 encodes the principal beta chain of HLA-DR and is among the most polymorphic genes in the human genome. Variation within the beta chain contributes substantially to the peptide-binding properties of HLA-DR molecules and consequently to differences in antigen recognition among individuals. HLA-DR complexes are prominently expressed by professional antigen-presenting cells, including B cells, dendritic cells, monocytes and macrophages, and their expression is widely investigated in immunology, transplantation, autoimmunity, infectious disease and cancer.
Clone DA2 is a historically important and published monoclonal antibody used in HLA-DR research. Its original characterization described DA2 as recognizing a monomorphic determinant common to HLA-DR specificities, with reactivity demonstrated across human B-cell populations. Subsequent research has continued to use DA2 as an HLA-DR beta-chain reagent, and experimental analysis with recombinant HLA-DRB proteins has demonstrated recognition of multiple HLA-DRB1 allelic forms. This established literature history distinguishes DA2 from less extensively characterized HLA-DRB1 antibody clones and provides continuity with decades of research into HLA class II expression and immunogenetics.
NSJ Bioreagents provides clone DA2 as an HLA-DRB1 Antibody for research into HLA-DR expression, antigen presentation and immune-cell biology. Its long-standing publication history and recognition of a conserved HLA-DR determinant make DA2 particularly relevant to researchers seeking an established clone for comparison with previous HLA-DR studies. An HLA-DR Beta Chain Antibody such as DA2 can support investigation of MHC class II expression and mechanisms connecting antigen presentation with CD4 T cell-mediated immunity.

Optimal dilution of the HLA-DRB1 Antibody DA2 / HLA-DR Beta Chain Antibody should be determined by the researcher.
Activated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were used as the immunogen for the HLA-DRB1 antibody.
Store the HLA-DRB1 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
