Recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies are produced using in vitro expression systems. The expression systems are developed by cloning in the specific antibody DNA sequences from immunoreactive rabbits. Then, individual clones are screened to select the best candidates for production. The advantages of using recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibodies include: better specificity and sensitivity, lot-to-lot consistency, animal origin-free formulations, and broader immunoreactivity to diverse targets due to larger rabbit immune repertoire.
This antibody has specificity for Human MICB/MIC-B.
MICB encodes the highly polymorphic MHC (HLA) class I chain-related gene B. The protein product is expressed on the cell surface. It is thought that MICB functions as a stress-induced antigen that is broadly recognized by intestinal epithelial gamma delta T cells. MICB is broadly recognized by NK cells and T cells with NKG2D receptor on their surface. The complex NKG2D-MICB results in MICB expressing cytolytic T cells and NK cells against epithelial tumor cells.
