Background

THP-1 cells are monocytes, derived from an acute monocytic leukemia patient. Beta-2-Microglobulin is a required component of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class 1 molecules, which present peptide fragments from within the cell to cytotoxic T cells as part of the adaptive immune system. B2M plays an essential role both in governing MHC class I molecule stability and in promoting antigen binding and presenting the antigen to CD3/TCR complex of CD8+ T cells.
