Description:
Mouse anti pig SLA Class II DR antibody, clone 2E9/13 recognizes SLA DR molecules which are expressed on all B cells, antigen presenting cells and on certain subsets of resting and activated T cells. Mouse anti pig SLA Class II DR antibody, clone 289/13 reacts with lymphocytes from all outbred and miniature pigs so far tested, suggesting that it recognizes a monomorphic determinant of porcine SLA DR.
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a cluster of genes that are important in the immune response to infections. In pigs, this is referred to as the swine leukocyte antigen (SLA) region. There are 3 major MHC class II proteins encoded by the SLA which are SLA DP, SLA DQ and SLA DR.
Mouse anti pig SLA class II DR, clone 2E9/13 immunoprecipitates a heterodimer composed of two polypeptides of ~28 and ~35 kDa from NP-40 extracts of biotin surface-labeled porcine peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Mouse anti pig SLA Class II DR antibody, clone 289/13 is reported to inhibit the mixed lymphocyte reaction and T cell stimulation induced by African swine fever virus and staphylococcal enterotoxin B.
