Anti-Leishmania Lpg Anticorpo [CA7AE] (A279985)

Anti-Leishmania Lpg Antibody [CA7AE]

Mouse monoclonal [CA7AE] antibody to Leishmania Lpg.

This antibody recognises lipophosphoglycan (LPG) the major cell surface glycoconjugate of Leishmania parasites. recognises the repeat carbohydrate epitope of most species of Leishmania LPG. The epitope is also found on the excreted acid phosphatase of Leishmania and is expressed on the surface of Leishmania infected macrophages. recognises the promastigotes of Leishmania donovani but not those of the related species L. tropica (Jaffe and Sarfstein 1987, Sundar et al. 2001). Mouse anti Leishmania lipophosphoglycan antibody, clone CA7AE does however recognize a broad range of L. donovani and L. major strains and related species including L. infantum, L. m. mexicana, L. aethiopica and L. b. panamensis.
