Produktmerkmale
The hamster anti-mouse H2-M3 antibody (clone 130) reacts with the H2-M3 major histocompatibility complex (MHC) non-classical class Ib antigen. H2-M3 (M3) associates with β2-microglobulin and is capable of being expressed by most leukocytes. However, due to a lack of endogenous antigens, M3 has been reported to be undetectable on most cells. Its expression is induced by high-affinity N-formylated peptides from mitochondria, Listeria monocytogenes, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The induced expression of M3 is most efficient on antigen presenting cells. M3 presents antigen to cytotoxic T lymphocytes and may play a key role in protective immunity against the intracellular bacteria L. monocytogenes and M. tuberculosis. Furthermore, M3 is capable of presenting mitochondrial antigens for intrathymic positive selection of T-cell receptors which recognize those peptides. Upregulation of H2-M3 expression by exogenous N-formylated peptide. C57BL/6 splenocytes were cultured overnight in the absence (left panel) or presence (right panel) of N-
