Description

The M17/4 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD11a, the 180 kDa integrin α_L, also known as the lymphocyte function associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) α chain. LFA-1, formed by non-covalent association of CD11a with CD18 (integrin β₂), serves as an important adhesion molecule involved in lymphocyte and granulocyte function. CD54 (ICAM-1), CD102 (ICAM-2), and CD50 (ICAM-3) are ligands for LFA-1. CD11a is expressed by all leukocytes.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The M17/4 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. M17/4 has also been reported in blocking of CD11a function.

Applications Tested

The M17/4 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocyte suspensions. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 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.
