1A3 specifically binds to the scFv region of a B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) specific mouse monoclonal antibody (mAb, clone C11D5.3).
B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) is a protein that has been reported to be selectively expressed by B-lineage cells including multiple myeloma cells and plasma cells.
The scFv region of C11D5.3 has been used to develop BCMA-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells utilized in clinical trials.
