| Description | It is an antibody clone R5.015 specific for Reticulocyte-binding protein homolog 5 (RH5), derived from human. It binds close to the C-terminus of RH5, through interactions with the C-termini of helices 5 and 7 of RH5. This antibody is not growth inhibitory and also prevents the binding of CyRPA to RH5. This product has been determined by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Surface plasmon resonance. |
