A monoclonal antibody raised against cytochrome b558 reacted specifically
with the 22- to 23-Kd protein, the small subunit of this cytochrome.
Cytochemical studies showed that the epitope was located on the surfaces of
human neutrophils and monocytes. The small subunit of cytochrome b558,
therefore, was expressed at least in part on the outer surface of these
cells.
