Description
Chicken Bu-1, a product of the Bu-1a and Bu-1b alleles, is a type I transmembrane glycosylated, disulfide-linked homodimer. MAb AV20 recognizes a monomorphic determinant on the Bu-1 B cell-associated alloantigens of both RPL 6(3) (Bu-1a) and 7(2) (Bu-1b) lines of inbred chickens. The antibody also identifies B cells in partially inbred birds. Bu-1 is found on 85-90 % of bursal cells, 2-8 % of thymocytes, 15-27 % of spleen cells, and 2-18 % of peripheral blood cells. It is also expressed on subsets of macrophages and monocytes, but not on granulocytes, erythrocytes or thrombocytes.
