Anti-H-Ficolin (human)

Mouse monoclonal antibody

Cat.No. RIG 334-01

Subclass IgG1/k
Presentation:

Preparation: Protein-A purified
Content: Available in 200 µL and 1 mL size.1 mg/mL +/- 15%. See Certificate of Analysis for details.
Solvent: 0.01 M phosphate buffer, pH 7.4, containing 0.5 M NaCl and 15 mM sodium azide
Storage: 4-8ºC without exposure to light. No precautions necessary during handling.

Antigen:

H-Ficolin (Hakata antigen, Ficolin-3) is an innate immunity pattern recognition molecule found in human
serum. H-Ficolin binds to distinct pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP) formed by
carbohydrates (GlcNAc, GalNAc and fucose) activating complement through the lectin pathway by
means of the associated MASPs ((MBL)-associated serine proteases). H-Ficolin consists of 35 kDa
protein chains associated in triplet subunits which are again associated in high molecular weight
oligomers by means of disulfide bonds at the N-terminal region.

Immunogen:

Recombinant human H-ficolin

Specificity:

RIG 334-01 reacts specifically with H-ficolin. No cross-reaction has been observed with L- or M-ficolin
(1).

Epitope specificity:

Not determined

Reactivity:

RIG 334-01 reacts with recombinant H-ficolin coated directly onto the microtiter well. A sandwich ELISA
for H-ficolin uses RIG 334-01 for both capture and detection (1).
