Purified Anti-human CD20 Antibody *HI20a*

HI20a is an anti-human monoclonal antibody that recognizes the CD20 antigen. CD20 (alternatively called MS4A1, Bp35 or Leukocyte surface antigen Leu-16) is a 33 - 37 kD transmembrane protein that is expressed on the surface of cells such as B cells. CD20 plays a role in important cellular pathways, namely, the B cell receptor signaling pathway. From a research standpoint, it is of biological interest due to its association with key macromolecules/ligands such as Lyn. CD20 is a moderately popular antibody target, with over 20000 publications in the last decade. CD20 has a variety of applications in costimulatory molecules and immunology research, commonly serving as a phenotypic marker for differentiating cell types in flow cytometric applications. This antibody was purified through affinity chromatography.
