IgM constitutes about 10% of serum immunoglobulins. IgM is prominent in early immune responses to most antigens and predominates in certain antibody responses such as ′natural′ blood group antibodies. IgM (with IgD) is the major immunoglobulin expressed on the surface of B cells.
Specificity
Based on immunoelectrophoresis, the antibody reacts with the Fc5μ portion of the human IgM heavy chain. Does not react with human IgG or IgA, or with the light chains of human immunoglobulins. No reactivity against non-immunoglobulin serum proteins, but the antibody may cross-react with IgM from other species.
Immunogen
Prepared from purified human IgM Fc5μ fragment.
Application
EIA: 1:5,000-1:100,000. Western blots: 1:5,000-1:200,000. Immunohistochemistry: 1:500-1:5,000.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Plants are being increasingly recognized for the production of complex human proteins, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Various methods have been applied to boost recombinant expression, with DNA codon usage being an important approach. Here, we transiently expressed three complex human
Antibodies to P. falciparum apical membrane protein 1 (AMA1) may contribute to protective immunity against clinical malaria by inhibiting blood stage growth of P. falciparum, and AMA1 is a leading malaria vaccine candidate. Currently, there is limited knowledge of the

Anti-modified protein antibodies (AMPA) targeting citrullinated, acetylated and/or carbamylated self-antigens are hallmarks of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although AMPA-IgG cross-reactivity to multiple post-translational modifications (PTMs) is evident, it is unknown whether the first responding B cells, expressing IgM, display similar characteristics
Thickening of the vascular basement membrane (BM) is a fundamental structural change in the small blood vessels in diabetes. Collagen type IV (CIV) is a major component of the BMs, and monitoring the turnover of this protein in type 2
Background and objectives: HbA1c measurements may be useful not only in optimizing glycemic control but also as a tool for managing overall vascular risk in patients with diabetes. In the present study, we investigate the clinical significance of HbA1c as
