This paper summarizes the results of the characterization of A10, a murine monoclonal antibody which recognizes an epitope not restricted to cells of a definite lineage, but which seems to be specific for an early differentiation antigen present on precursors of circulating T and B cells. The structure recognized by the A10 monoclonal antibody, although strikingly structurally similar to the HLA-A,B,C complex, is immunologically different both from histocompatibility antigens and from beta 2 microglobulin. Furthermore, the distribution of the A10 antigen is analyzed in different cell and tissue samples, both in health and disease conditions.

Abstract
This paper summarizes the results of the characterization of A10, a murine monoclonal antibody which recognizes an epitope not restricted to cells of a definite lineage, but which seems to be specific for an early differentiation antigen present on precursors of circulating T and B cells. The structure recognized by the A10 monoclonal antibody, although strikingly structurally similar to the HLA-A,B,C complex, is immunologically different both from histocompatibility antigens and from beta 2 microglobulin. Furthermore, the distribution of the A10 antigen is analyzed in different cell and tissue samples, both in health and disease conditions.
