Alternative Synonym:
HLA class II histocompatibility antigen DP alpha 1 chain, HLA DP1A, HLA SB alpha chain, HLADP, HLADPA1, HLASB, HLASB histocompatibility type, Human MHC class II HLA SB alpha, Major histocompatibility complex class II DP alpha 1, MHC class II DP3 alpha, MHC class II DPA1, PLT1, Primed lymphocyte test
Recognizes a non-polymorphic determinant of DP-MHC class II. MHC class II antigens are transmembrane glycoproteins of non-covalently linked alpha (33-35kDa) and beta (27-30kDa) chains. It reportedly reacts with B- non-T, non-B cell lines but not with T- and myeloid cell lines and leukemias. Differential expression of MHC class II antigens on fetal and adult lymphocytes, malignant B cells appears to reflect the stage of cell differentiation which may be useful in the study of lymphoproliferative disorders.
