General description

IgG2a (immunoglobulin G 2a) is one of the subclasses of rat immunoglobulins, which also include IgG1, IgG2b and IgG2c.

Specificity

Mouse IgG2a, κ, antibodies react with anti-mouse whole serum, anti-mouse IgG2a and anti-mouse κ chain immunoglobulins. The antibody preparation, IgG2a, does not react with antisera to mouse IgA, IgM, IgG1, IgG2b, IgG3 and λ light chain immunoglobulins in Ouchterlony double diffusion assays. IgG2a-FITC conjugate can be used as controls in immunoassays.

Application

IgG2a FITC Isotype Control from murine myeloma has been used in dual-colour staining and in cell staining for flow cytometry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is a glycoprotein antibody that regulates immune responses such as phagocytosis and is also involved in the development of autoimmune diseases . Mouse IgGs have four distinct isotypes, namely, IgG1, IgG2a, IgG2b, and IgG3. IgG1 regulates complement fixation in mice.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 15 mM sodium azide.

Preparation Note

Prepared by conjugation to fluorescein isothiocyanate isomer I (FITC). This green dye is efficiently excited at 495 nm and emits at 525 nm.
