Application Notes

The binding activity of this antibody's original format (human IgM) to IgG Fc fragments was measured by ELISA, and a dissociation constant (Kd) of 6.0x10-7 M was calculated (Burastero et al., 1988; PMID: 3264319). This antibody exhibited strong reactivity with both monoclonal and polyclonal human anti-Rh IgG antibodies bearing the Gm(a) or Gm(g) specificity in hemagglutination assays (HAs), displaying a higher affinity for Gm(g). Additionally, it demonstrated efficient binding to heat-altered autologous Gm(a-), (g-) IgG and exhibited heteroclitic specificity at the clonal level in an autologous system (Williams Jr et al., 1992; PMID: 1380541). The binding of this antibody's original format to human IgG subclasses as measured by ELISA demonstrated that its binding specificity is IgG1~IgG2~IgG3>IgG4 (Duquerroy et al., 2007; PMID: 17395205).

Short Description

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.
