Background: 

Human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G) is a nonclassical MHC class I antigen with very little sequence variability. HLA-G modulates innate immunity by regulating HLA-E expression and its subsequent interaction with CD94/NKG2 receptors. HLA-G is also an effective ligand of natural killer (NK) inhibitory receptors, and it down-regulates both CD8+ and CD4+ T-cell responsiveness. HLA-G is primarily expressed on fetal cells of the human placenta, suggesting a key role for HLA-G during pregnancy in maintaining immune tolerance at the maternal-fetal interface. Recent studies indicate an ectopic up-regulation in tumor cells that may favor their escape from antitumor immune responses.

Reactivity: 
This antibody reacts with HLA-G on Flow cytometry. This antibody (clone 87G) recognizes membrane-bound HLA-G1 and soluble isoform HLA-G5 molecules and shows no apparent cross-reactivity with other class I molecules when tested on diverse HLA class I-transfected cells.
Intended Use: 
For Research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedure.
