F12 labels the keratinocyte membrane and the basement membrane zone of rat tongue sections by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF). The antibody also stains both the cell membrane and the basement membrane zone of stratified squamous epithelia, and other epithelial tissues such as urinary bladder, small bowel, thymus, and liver. Non-epithelial tissues, such as myocardium are additionally stained. Sera from patients with pemphigus vulgaris can be incubated with human skin sections to determine their capacity to block the binding of F12 in an IIF blocking assay. IEM (immunoelectron microscopy) can be used to determine the ultralocalization of the antibody.
This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Human IgM format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
