anti-CD45RA Purified (with Antibiotics)

Human CD45RA is expressed on all cells of hematopoietic origin, except erythrocytes.  CD45RA is a transmembrane tyrosine phosphate which can exist in at least nine different isoforms resulting from tissue-specific alternative RNA splicing of exons 4-7 of a single gene coding for the various N-terminal peptide segments.  The CD45RA isoform predominates on naive/resting T cells and medullary thymocytes.

Isotype: Murine IgG2a

Immunogen: Stimulated human leukocytes

Specificity: Antibody 158.4D3 recognizes all CD45 molecules containing the A region exon (1,2).
