Background

CD45 is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on most nucleated cells of haematopoietic origin. CD45, encoded by a single gene mapped to chromosome 1, has various isoforms based on differential splicing of exons 4, 5 and 6. On human leucocytes, five different isoforms of CD45, named ABC, AB, BC, B and 0, have been identified. These isoforms are recognized by CD45RA, CD45RB, CD45RC and CD45R0 antibodies. The isoforms range in Mr from 180 000 to 220 000. All the CD45 isoforms share the same intracellular segment, which has been shown to have tyrosine phosphatase activity. Various leucocytes express characteristic CD45 isoforms, thus T cells express CD45 isoforms corresponding to
their development and activation, B cells predominantly express the ABC isoform, and monocytes and dendritic cells predominantly express the B and 0 isoforms. Granulocytes principally express only the B and 0 isoforms (4).

Volume/Quantity

0,5 ml

Clone Number

2B11 + PD7/26

Preparation

Cell culture supernatant dialysed against 0.05 mol/L Tris/HCl, pH 7.2

Preservatives Stabilisers

15 mM Sodium Azide (NaN3)

Immunogen

2B11: Isolated neoplastic cells from a case of T-cell lymphoma/leukaemia (1).
PD7/26: Human peripheral blood lymphocytes maintained in T-cell growth factor (1).

Isotype

IgG1 (Mouse)

Specificity

Anti-CD45 is a mixture of two monoclonal antibodies, clones 2B11 and PD7/26, directed against different epitopes. Clone 2B11 was clustered as anti-CD45 at the Third International Workshop and Conference on Human Leucocyte Differentiation Antigens, held in Oxford in 1986 and reacts with all the known isotypes of the CD45 family (5). Clone PD7/26 was clustered as anti-CD45RB at the Fifth International Workshop and Conference on Human Leucocyte Differentiation Antigens, held in Boston in 1993 (6).
The antibody labels CD45 in both normal and neoplastic cells, and is a useful tool for identifying tumour cells of lymphoid origin (1-3). Differential identification is aided by the results from a panel of antibodies. Interpretation must be made within the context of the patient’s clinical history and other diagnostic tests by a qualified pathologist.

Fusion Partners

Spleen cells from an immunised BALB/c mouse were fused with cells of the mouse NSI myeloma cell line.
