ZooMAb antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.

Each ZooMAb antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Target description

MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B (UniProt: Q29980; also known as MIC-B, MICB) is encoded by the MICB (also known as PERB11.2) gene (Gene ID: 4277) in human. MICB is a single-pass type I membrane protein that is widely expressed and acts as a stress-induced self-antigen. It is widely expressed with the exception of the central nervous system. It is also expressed in many, but not all, epithelial tumors of lung, breast, kidney, ovary, prostate and colon. It is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-22), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form that contains an extracellular domain (aa 23-309), a transmembrane domain (aa 310-330), and a cytoplasmic domain (aa 331-383). MICB can be induced by heat shock, oxidative stress, retinoic acid, interferon alpha, and 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine. Its induction by interferon alpha is impaired in subjects with chronic hepatitis C virus infection. It is recognized by gamma-delta T cells and serves as ligands for the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor. Its binding to KLRK1 leads to cell lysis. Mutations in MICB gene have been linked to Rheumatoid arthritis that is characterized by inflammatory changes in the synovial membranes and articular structures, along with widespread fibrinoid degeneration of the collagen fibers in mesenchymal tissues. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
