Flow cytometric analysis of Mouse H-2Kb expression on C57BL/6 mouse splenocytes. Cells from the C57BL/6 mouse splenocytes (right) or BALB/c mouse splenocytes (left) were stained with either Pacific Blue™ Mouse IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (black line histogram) or SDT Pacific Blue™ Mouse Anti-Mouse H-2Kb Antibody (red line histogram) at 2μl/test, cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (blue line histogram) was used as unlabelled control. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using Agilent NovoCyte Quanteon and FlowJo™ software.

Background
MHC Class I (H-2Kb) is a 45 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein encoded within the mouse MHC locus on chromosome 17, functioning as the murine ortholog of human HLA-A; it folds in the endoplasmic reticulum with a 12 kDa β2-microglobulin light chain to create a peptide-binding groove that preferentially accommodates 8–10-mer peptides bearing hydrophobic C-termini, and once loaded it is transported to the cell surface where it surveys CD8⁺ cytotoxic T lymphocytes for the presence of viral, tumor or self-peptides, thereby orchestrating rapid immune elimination of aberrant cells while maintaining tolerance through engagement of inhibitory receptors such as Ly49 and KIR.
