Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA clone RM124 sandwich ELISA detection of human plasma IgA1. Sandwich ELISA analysis of human plasma using Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA clone RM124 as the capture antibody (100 ng per well). Detection was performed using biotinylated anti-human light chains (kappa+lambda) antibody clone RM129, followed by alkaline phosphatase conjugated streptavidin for signal development. The assay demonstrates concentration dependent detection of IgA1 in serial dilutions of human plasma, confirming effective capture by clone RM124 and detection through the light chain specific antibody.
Sandwich ELISA of human IgA1 using the recombinant Human IgA1 antibody as the capture (100ng/well), and biotinylated anti-human light chains (κ+λ) antibody clone RM129 as the detect, followed by an alkaline phosphatase conjugated streptavidin.
IHC testing of FFPE human tonsil tissue with recombinant Human IgA1 antibody. A pH6 Citrate buffer or pH9 Tris/EDTA buffer HIER step is recommended for testing of FFPE tissue sections.
Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA clone RM124 specificity by ELISA. ELISA analysis of purified human immunoglobulins coated at 50 ng per well demonstrates the binding specificity of Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA clone RM124. Strong signal is observed with human IgA1 across tested concentrations (200 ng/mL, 50 ng/mL, and 10 ng/mL), indicating selective recognition of the Immunoglobulin alpha 1 heavy chain (IGHA1). Very slight cross reactivity with IgA2 is observed, while no detectable binding occurs with other immunoglobulin classes including IgG, IgM, IgD, or IgE. These results indicate that clone RM124 preferentially recognizes IgA1 with minimal reactivity toward IgA2 and no cross reactivity with other human immunoglobulins.
Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA clone RM124 titration by ELISA. ELISA titration analysis of Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA clone RM124 using plates coated with varying amounts of purified human IgA1 (50 uL per well coating). A serial dilution of the recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody RM124 was applied as the primary antibody, followed by an alkaline phosphatase conjugated anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody for detection. The assay demonstrates concentration-dependent binding of the antibody to human IgA1, with higher absorbance values observed at greater coating concentrations and higher primary antibody concentrations. These results confirm robust and specific recognition of the Immunoglobulin alpha 1 heavy chain (IGHA1) by clone RM124 in ELISA-based detection assays.

Description

Immunoglobulin alpha 1 heavy chain (IGHA1) is the defining heavy chain of the IgA1 subclass of immunoglobulin A antibodies, a major component of humoral immunity. IgA antibodies are produced by plasma cells derived from activated B lymphocytes and play an important role in protecting mucosal surfaces from microbial pathogens. The Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA clone RM124 recognizes the alpha 1 heavy chain of human IgA and enables selective detection of IgA1 antibodies in immunoassay-based research applications. IgA1 is the predominant IgA subclass present in human serum and contributes significantly to systemic antibody-mediated immune responses.

IgA exists in two subclasses in humans, IgA1 and IgA2, which differ primarily in the structure of their hinge regions and their distribution within the body. IgA1 contains a longer hinge region that provides greater flexibility for antigen binding but also increases susceptibility to cleavage by certain bacterial proteases. Because of this structural feature, IgA1 is typically more abundant in circulation and many extracellular fluids, whereas IgA2 is relatively enriched in mucosal secretions where resistance to microbial proteases is advantageous. The IGHA1 gene encodes the alpha 1 heavy chain responsible for the structural and functional properties of IgA1 antibodies.

IgA1 antibodies are produced by plasma cells in lymphoid tissues such as spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow, where they contribute to systemic humoral immunity. In addition to circulating antibodies, IgA1 can also participate in mucosal immune responses through the formation of polymeric IgA complexes that are transported across epithelial cells by the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor. These antibodies function by binding microbial antigens and preventing pathogen attachment to epithelial surfaces while facilitating immune clearance mechanisms.

Because IgA subclass composition can vary depending on immune status, tissue location, and disease conditions, an IgA1 antibody provides a valuable tool for subclass-specific analysis of immunoglobulin responses. Detection of Immunoglobulin alpha 1 heavy chain expression allows researchers to quantify IgA1 antibodies and investigate subclass distribution in serum or other biological samples. Recombinant antibodies such as clone RM124 enable highly specific recognition of IgA1 without cross reactivity to other immunoglobulin classes or subclasses, supporting precise measurement of IgA subclass responses in immunological studies.

Application Notes

The stated application concentrations are suggested starting points. Titration of the Human IgA1 Antibody for ELISA may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.

Immunogen

Human IgA was used as the immunogen for this recombinant Human IgA1 antibody.

Storage
