As an integral component of the MHC class I complex, β2-microglobulin plays a critically important role in immune system function (3). It has important relevance to cancer biology research; for example, research studies have shown that nearly one-third of diffuse large B cell lymphomas contain mutations that inactivate β gene function, thereby allowing tumor cells to escape immune detection (4). In addition, β2-microglobulin has been identified as an amyloid preprotein with collagen-binding affinity (5); its accumulation in osteoarthritic lesions of long-term dialysis patients is reportedly a contributing factor to the condition known as amyloid osteoarthropathy (6).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nB2m; B2MG; beta-2 microglobulin; Beta-2-microglobulin; beta2-; beta2-m; beta2m; Ly-m1; Ly-m11; OTTMUSP00000016550\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: M\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 12\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800109142185,"sku":"64046T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-64046t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
