Description

CD20 is a B cell-specific 32kDa membrane protein involved in intracellular calcium regulation. CD20 expression begins after the induction of CD19 during development, and is coexpressed with IgM during the pre-B to immature B cell transition in bone marrow. Expression then increases during maturation with almost all mature cells expressing some level of CD20. The human CD20 antigen has proven to be an effective immunotherapeutic target in B cell lymphoma and several autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis and type I diabetes. CD20 consists of 4 transmembrane domains and a 44 amino acid extracellular loop domain where AISB12 binds.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This AISB12 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested

This AISB12 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.25 μg per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
