Major histocompatibility complex class II DR beta 1 (HLA-DRB1) is a transmembrane glycoprotein encoded by the HLA-DRB1 gene that forms the beta chain of the HLA-DR antigen receptor responsible for presenting processed peptide antigens to CD4-positive helper T lymphocytes. HLA-DRB1 Antibody Clone DA2 recognizes the HLA-DR beta chain and has been widely described in the literature as Clone DA2, a mouse monoclonal antibody frequently used to investigate major histocompatibility complex class II expression and antigen presentation in immune cells. The HLA-DR receptor is a heterodimeric complex composed of an alpha chain encoded by HLA-DRA paired with a polymorphic beta chain encoded by HLA-DRB genes, most prominently HLA-DRB1. Together these chains form a peptide-binding receptor that displays extracellularly derived antigens on the cell surface for recognition by CD4-positive helper T lymphocytes, a process essential for activation of adaptive immune responses.
Expression of HLA-DR molecules is characteristic of professional antigen-presenting cells including B lymphocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and activated monocytes. Because of this expression pattern, HLA-DRB1 antibodies are widely used in immunology research to identify antigen-presenting immune cell populations and evaluate immune activation states within tissues and cultured cells. Clone DA2 has been reported in numerous peer-reviewed studies examining the distribution and function of MHC class II molecules on immune cells. In these studies, HLA-DRB1 Antibody Clone DA2 has been used to characterize antigen-presenting cell populations and to study regulation of immune responses mediated through the HLA-DR pathway.
The HLA-DRB1 gene exhibits extensive allelic diversity across human populations, contributing to variability in peptide binding specificity and immune responsiveness. Numerous HLA-DRB1 variants influence susceptibility to autoimmune diseases and immune-mediated disorders including rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and type 1 diabetes. Because HLA-DRB1 plays a central role in antigen presentation and immune regulation, antibodies such as HLA-DRB1 Antibody Clone DA2 are widely used in immunology research examining antigen presentation pathways, immune activation, and immune cell function.
Optimal dilution of the HLA-DRB1 Antibody Clone DA2 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).
