CloneID: 18-2a 7.1
Heavy Chain modification: Fc Silent™
Antigen Long Description: The original antibody was generated by immunizing male 129S6/SvEv mice with human CD98 (huCD98)-expressing tumor cells.
Buffer Composition: PBS with 0.02% Proclin 300.
Chimeric Use Statement: This is a reformatted human IgG1 Fc Silent™ antibody, based on the original human IgG1 format, created for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
Available Custom Conjugation Options: AP, HRP, Fluorescein, APC, PE, Biotin Type A, Biotin Type B, Streptavidin, FluoroProbes 647H, Atto488, APC/Cy7, PE/Cy7
Uniprot Accession No.: Q01650
Specificity Statement: The antibody is specific for CD98.
Application Notes (Clone): Binding affinities of the murine and chimeric version of the antibody were determined using FACS analysis (Kd values between 0.9 nM and 4.5 nM). The chimeric antibody was also subjected to FACS analysis using three AML primary tumor samples and one cell line expressing cynomolgus monkey CD98 (cynCD98). The results demonstrated that the chimeric retained binding to human CD98 on AML cells and on cynCD98. The binding affinity of the murine, chimeric and humanized version of the antibody to CD98 was measured by surface plasmon resonance (JP2015501639A5).
