Reactivity	Human
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Synthetic peptide (Human, N-terminal)
Specificity	The mouse monoclonal antibody HIR2 recognizes an epitope within the N-terminal (extracellular) portion of CD235a (glycophorin A) and CD235b (glycophorin B). Its antigen is expressed on early erythroblasts, late erythroblasts, erythroblasts, mature erythrocytes and the cells of erythroid cell lines K562 and HEL, but not on all other cells.

Database Link	Entrez Gene 2993 Human UniProt ID P02724
Background	CD235a (Glycophorin A, GPA) is a transmembrane sialoglycoprotein expressed on erythrocytes and their precursors. Similarly to glycophorin B (GPB), these molecules provide the cells with a large mucin-like surface, which minimalizes aggregation between erythrocytes in the circulation. GPA is the carrier of blood group M and N specificities, while GPB accounts for S, s and U specificities. CD235a is a receptor of Hsa, an Streptococcus adhesin.
Synonyms	Glycophorin-A, GPA, PAS-2, Sialoglycoprotein alpha, MN sialoglycoprotein
