Anti-Band 3 antibody, Mouse monoclonal (mouse IgG2a isotype) is derived from the BIII-136 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mouse immunized with glycophorin B purified from human erythrocytes.
Application
Anti-Band 3 antibody, Mouse monoclonal may be used in immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
As a response to an oxidative stress, Band 3 protein forms clusters and clear damaged and aged RBCs from circulation. Enhanced band 3 protein clustering is implicated in RBC disorders such as hemolytic anemia, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency, malaria and sickle-cell disease.
Physical form
Glycophorin B purified from human erythrocytes
Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Oxidative stress mediated clustering of membrane protein band 3 plays an essential role in the clearance of damaged and aged red blood cells (RBCs) from the circulation. While a number of previous experimental studies have observed changes in band 3

Anion Exchanger 1 (AE1) and stomatin are integral proteins of the red blood cell (RBC) membrane. Erythroid and kidney AE1 play a major role in HCO3- and Cl- exchange. Stomatins down-regulate the activity of many channels and transporters. Biochemical studies
