This protein is part of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules which play a role in the immune system by presenting peptide antigens to T cells. HLA-B27 has an approximate molecular weight of 44 kDa. It is expressed on the surface of most nucleated cells particularly on immune cells. The allele is well-studied for its association with certain inflammatory diseases.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nHLA-B27 presents peptides derived from intracellular proteins enabling cytotoxic T-lymphocytes to recognize and respond to pathogens or damaged cells. It forms a complex with beta-2 microglobulin and peptide antigens facilitating antigen presentation. The HLA-B27 antigen-presenting complex plays a role in immune surveillance by maintaining immune system recognition of foreign peptides and altered self-peptides.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nHLA-B27 is integral in the antigen processing and presentation pathway. This pathway involves the proteasome TAP transporters and other MHC class I molecules. The protein interacts with molecules like HLA-A and HLA-C within this pathway which also play similar roles in immune surveillance and response. These interactions ensure an effective immune response against intracellular pathogens.\u003cbr\u003e\nHLA-B27 shows a strong association with ankylosing spondylitis and other spondyloarthropathies. Ankylosing spondylitis is a form of chronic inflammatory arthritis that affects the spine and large joints. In continued research HLA-B27-positive individuals demonstrate increased susceptibility to these disorders. The mechanisms might involve interactions with specific peptide antigens causing inappropriate immune responses. Related proteins such as anti-HLA-ABC FITC can assist in studying and identifying those cells presenting the HLA-B27 antigen aiding in diagnoses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855375749289,"sku":"ab23840","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab23840","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
