The β-Microglobulin antibody, clone TÜ99, is derived from the hybridization of P3-NS1/1-Ag4-1 mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells isolated from BALB/c mice immunized with a human uncloned primed lymphocyte typing (PLT) cell line.
The β-Microglobulin antibody specifically recognizes β-microglobulin, a 12-kilodalton (kDa) protein with homology to the constant region of immunoglobulin molecules.
