Nonclassical major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I human leukocyte antigen E
(HLA-E) and HLA-G molecules differ from classical ones by specific patterns of transcription,
protein expression, and immunotolerant functions. The HLA-G molecule can be expressed
as four membrane-bound (HLA-G1 to-G4) and three soluble (HLA-G5 to-G7) proteins upon
alternative splicing of its primary transcript. In this study, we describe a new set of
monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) called MEM-G/01,-G/04,-G/09,-G/13, MEM-E/02, and-E/06 …
