ANTIBODIES

Contributor Information
- Name Peter Beverley
- Institute Absolute Antibody ; Cancer Research UK, London Research Institute: Lincoln's Inn Fields
Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-Leu1 [UCH-T2]
- Clone: rUCH-T2
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
- Class: Recombinant
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Human
- Host: Mouse
- Application: IHC ; IF ; WB
- Description: Leu-1 is a surface glycoprotein present on peripheral T cells (>95%) and B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells that binds CD72. Absence of the Leu-1 marker on childhood ALL cells is associated with a more favourable prognosis. UCH-T2 is useful for detection of T cells in peripheral blood and lymph nodes and categorisation of T cell lymphomas and B cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
- Immunogen: Thymocytes followed by Sezary T cells.
- Isotype: IgG2a
- Research area: Immunology; Stem cell biology
- For Research Use Only
