Conformation-dependent high-affinity monoclonal antibodies to prion proteins.
Prion diseases are fatal, neurodegenerative illnesses caused by the accumulation of PrP(Sc), an aberrantly folded isoform of the normal, cellular prion protein. Detection of PrP(Sc) commonly relies on immunochemical methods, a strategy hampered by the lack of Abs specific for this disease-causing isoform. In this article, we report the generation of eight mAbs against prion protein (PrP) follow...
متن کاملConformation-Dependent High-Affinity Potent Ricin-Neutralizing Monoclonal Antibodies
Ricin is a potential biothreat agent with no approved antidote available for ricin poisoning. The aim of this study was to develop potent antibody-based antiricin antidotes. Four strong ricin resistant hybridoma clones secreting antiricin monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were developed. All four mAbs are bound to conformational epitopes of ricin toxin B (RTB) with high affinity (KD values from 2.55...
متن کاملMonoclonal Antibodies
SUMMARY Monoclonal Antibodies are identical antibodies and Can be generated in ultimated amounts by countinuos cultures of single antibody- secreting cells. These cell lines are produced by cell fusion of normal lymphocytes to cells of a myeloma tumor cell line, which confers on the antibody producing hybrid cell, immortality and the ability grow as atumor in animals. monoclonal antibodies c...
متن کاملHigh-Affinity Rabbit Monoclonal Antibodies Specific for Amyloid Peptides
Antibodies that specifically bind to either amyloidpeptide (A ) isoform A 40 or A 42 contribute to the study of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology and to the development of cerebrospinal fluid-based tests for the probable diagnosis of AD. Polyclonal rabbit anti-A antibodies possess high affinity and specificity, but their generation requires a long immunization period, and the resulting antibod...
متن کاملImmunodiagnosis of hepatitis B with high-affinity IgM monoclonal antibodies.
High-affinity monoclonal IgG and IgM antibodies to hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) have been prepared and their functional capabilities explored by means of solid-phase radioimmunoassays. 125I-labeled HBsAg binding studies indicated that monoclonal IgM antibodies against HBsAg (anti-HBs) coupled to a solid-phase support quantitatively bound more HbsAg at a faster rate than conventionally pr...
