Mouse anti Human HLA DQ

NKI(SPV)L3 is used in research and Human diagnostics, cell sepaRation for research or clinical appliCation. NKI(SPV)L3 is useful for immunoprecipitation, flow cytometry and immunohistochemsitry on frozen sections. Optimal antibody dilution should be determined by titration.

HLA-DQ (DQ) is a cell surface receptor type protein found on antigen presenting cells. DQ is an ?? heterodimer of the MHC Class II type. The ? and ? chains are encoded by HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1, respectively. These two loci are adjacent to each other on chromosome 6p21.3. Both the ?-chain and ?-chain vary greatly. A person often produces two ?-chain and two ?-chain variants and thus 4 DQ isoforms. The DQ loci are in close genetic linkage to HLA-DR but less closely linked to HLA-DP, HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-C. DQ functions on antigen presenting cells, and is an antigen presenting molecule. Different DQ isoforms can bind to and present different antigens to T-cells. In this process T-cells are stimulated to grow and can signal B-cells to produce antibodies. DQ functions in recognizing and presenting foreign antigens (proteins derived from potential pathogens). But DQ is also involved in recognizing common self-antigens and presenting those antigens to the immune system in order to develop tolerance from a very young age. When tolerance to self proteins is lost, DQ may become involved in autoimmune disease. Two autoimmune diseases in which HLA-DQ is involved are coeliac disease and diabetes mellitus type 1. DQ is one of several antigens involved in rejection of organ transplants. As a variable cell surface receptor on immune cells, these D antigens, originally HL-A4 antigens, are involved in graft versus host disease when lymphoid tissues are transplanted between people.
