Description

Clone A-20 reacts with CD45 (Leukocyte Common Antigen) on leukocytes of mouse strains that express the CD45.1 alloantigen (e.g., RIII, SJL/J, STS/A, DA). It has been reported not to react with leukocytes from mouse strains expressing the CD45.2 alloantigen.

Source

This antibody was derived in 1981 by injection of thymocytes and splenocytes from SJL mice into A.SW mice. Splenocytes from these A.SW mice were fused with NS-1 cells to generate hybridomas.
