The clone MYG13 recognizes CD22 cell surface antigen, a 130-140kDa protein. The expression of CD22 is primarily restricted to the normal and neoplastic B cells but does not express on other hematopoietic cells. The initiation of expression of CD22 starts in the cytoplasm of pro-B and pre-B cells. Although CD22 is not expressed by plasma cells, it is abundantly expressed by the follicular mantle and marginal zone B-cells. Being a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, CD22 serves as an adhesion receptor for sialic acid-bearing ligands expressed on erythrocytes and leukocytes. The role of CD22 in the activation of B-cells is primarily associated with tyrosine kinases mediated signal transduction pathways.
Each lot of these antibodies has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of human PBMCs such that 0.5μg (unconjugated, Biotin) or 5μl (conjugated) of these products are sufficient for staining 1 million cells in a 100μl staining volume or 100μl of whole blood. It is recommended to titrate antibody reactivity empirically for optimal performance. Do you need an antibody for an antigen you don't see on our website? Do you need a different conjugation than what we have listed? We have a wide selection of antigens with a variety of conjugations available. Please reach out to us at [email protected].
