Clone: 14A3
Specificity: Recognizes the light chain of duck immunoglobulin, shown to be expressed strongly on bursal cells and weakly on splenocytes and peripheral lymphoid cells, but not expressed by thymocytes. Double-staining with clone 14A3 and duck CD8 alpha clone Du CD8-1, revealed the presence of a CD8high /14A3- cytotoxic T cell population and a CD8low/14A3+ B cell population in duck spleen and also revealed a high percentage of CD8+ /14A3+ cells in duck bursa. The recognition of B cells by 14A3 was confirmed using a recently developed Flag-tagged chicken B cell marker, known as chBAFF-Flag (B cell activating factor). Recognizes IgA in Peking duck bile and can be used as a marker to identify B cells in both Peking and Muscovy duck and geese studies. Detects a band of approximately 25 kD in duck cell lysates in Western blotting.
