The antibody reacts with denaturated HLA-G heavy chain. HLA-G belongs to the MHC Class I molecules (MHC Class Ib, nonclassical) and it is expressed on the surface of trophoblast cells.
Western Blotting. Immunohistochemistry (paraffin sections): 1:60 to 1:100, 1 h at RT. Positive tissue: Human placenta - extravillous cytotrophoblast. Staining technique: Standard ABC technique. Pretreatment: Heat retrieval in 0.01 M citrate buffer (4x2 min. in microwave oven). Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Hintergrund
HLA G belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. It is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain (with a1, a2, a3 domains) and a light chain (beta 2 microglobulin). Alternate splicing provides both soluble and membrane bound forms of HLA G, with two soluble isoforms and four membrane bound isoforms. HLA G may be part of the fetal protection system and is expressed on fetal derived placental cells.Synonyms: HLA class I histocompatibility antigen, HLA-6.0, HLAG, MHC class I antigen G
