Mouse monoclonal [BRIC203] antibody to Blood Group Kell Antigen.
Specificity
This antibody recognises human CD238, also known as the kell blood group antigen Kpbc. The kell blood group antigens are carried on the ~93 kDa erythrocyte membrane glycoprotein.In hemagglutination tests, Mouse anti Human CD238 antibody, clone BRIC203 reacts with Kp (a-b+) but not Kp (a+b-). In addition Mouse anti Human CD238 antibody, clone BRIC203 will agglutinate Kp (a+b-c+) and Kp (a-b-c+) erythrocytes but not react with Ko erythrocytes. Weaker staining in flow cytometry is observed on erythroblasts derived from CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells, compared to Kp (a-b+) red blood cells.
