specificity :
The antibody is a rabbit polyclonal antibody raised against b2M conjugated to biotin. It has been selected for its ability to recognize b2M in immunohistochemical staining andwestern blotting.
purity :
Antigen-specific Affinity Chromatography.
form :
Supplied as solution form in PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.02% NaN3,50% glycerol.
storage stability :
Storage: Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at 4 degree C for frequent use. Aliquot and store at -20 degree C for 12 months. Stability Test: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed.The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a serum protein found in association with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I heavy chain on the surface of nearly all nucleated cells. The protein has a predominantly beta-pleated sheet structure that can form amyloid fibrils in some pathological conditions. The encoded antimicrobial protein displays antibacterial activity in amniotic fluid. A mutation in this gene has been shown to result in hypercatabolic hypoproteinemia.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2014]
uniprot summary :
B2M: Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system. Heterodimer of an alpha chain and a beta chain. Beta-2- microglobulin is the beta-chain of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules. Polymers of beta 2-microglobulin can be found in tissues from patients on long-term hemodialysis. Belongs to the beta-2-microglobulin family. Protein type: Secreted; Secreted, signal peptide. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 15q21.1. Cellular Component: Golgi membrane; Golgi apparatus; extracellular space; phagocytic vesicle membrane; focal adhesion; membrane; endoplasmic reticulum lumen; early endosome membrane; cytoplasm; plasma membrane; extracellular region; MHC class I protein complex; external side of plasma membrane. Molecular Function: identical protein binding; protein binding. Biological Process: response to drug; regulation of immune response; viral reproduction; positive regulation of T cell mediated cytotoxicity; cytokine and chemokine mediated signaling pathway; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class I, TAP-independent; T cell differentiation in the thymus; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class I, TAP-dependent; regulation of defense response to virus by virus; retinal homeostasis; iron ion homeostasis; antigen processing and presentation of peptide antigen via MHC class I; response to cadmium ion; response to molecule of bacterial origin; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class I; innate immune response; protein refolding; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous protein antigen via MHC class Ib, TAP-dependent. Disease: Hypoproteinemia, Hypercatabolic
