Description
Clonality: Monoclonal
Host: Mouse
Purification: Supernatant
Reactivity: All
Monoclonal antibody 1B5 recognizes unsulfated unsaturated disaccharide neoepitopes (i.e. C-0-S "stubs") generated at the non-reducing terminal of Chondroitin Sulfate glycosaminoglycan chains that have been pre-digested with either Chondroitinase ABC or Chondroitinase ACII [see Figure 2; Caterson B (2012) Int. J. Exp. Pathol. 93: 1 - 10].
