anti-EBV LMP2A antibody [15F9]

anti-EBV LMP2A antibody [15F9] for IHC-Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections,Western blot and EBV

Overview

Product Description Rat Monoclonal antibody [15F9] recognizes EBV LMP2A
This antibody recognizes latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV is a Human herpesvirus, which is associated with conditions such as Hodgkinas disease and Burkittas Lymphoma and is the causative agent in mononucleosis in adolescents. EBV latently infects B lymphocytes. Infected B cells express EBV nuclear antigens and latent proteins LMP1, LMP2A and LMP2B. LMP2A forms aggregates in the plasma membranes of B lymphocytes, where it functions as a negative regulator of the Src and Syk protein tyrosine kinases. Studies show that LMP2A blocks B-cell receptor (BCR) signal transduction in EBV immortalized B cells in vitro and may play an important role in maintaining a latent EBV infection within the peripheral blood B cells of infected individuals. This antibody specifically recognizes LMP2A and does not cross react with LMP2B.
