Developmental profile and tissue distribution of Drosophila alcohol dehydrogenase: an immunochemical analysis with monoclonal antibodies.

Drosophila Alcohol Dehydrogenase

Drosophila alcohol dehydrogenasc (alcohol:NADf oxidorcduct.ase, EC 1.1.1.1) has attracted attention in several laboratories (l-3) recently. Genetic variants of this enzyme were found, and consequently it was possible to determine its structural locus on the genetic map. The specific activity of alcohol dehydrogenase varies greatly along the t.ime axis of devcloprnent of this organism, and it oc...

Monoclonal 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...

Immunochemical techniques. Part I: Hybridoma technology and monoclonal antibodies.

Description: The critically acclaimed laboratory standard, Methods in Enzymology, is one of the most highly respected publications in the field of biochemistry.

Immunochemical techniques. Part E. Monoclonal antibodies and general immunoassay methods.

Immunochemical characterization of anti-acetylcholinesterase inhibitory monoclonal antibodies.

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were prepared against native or DFP-inhibited Torpedo californica acetylcholinesterase and native or DFP-, MEPQ-, and soman-inhibited fetal bovine serum acetylcholinesterase. The cross reactivity of these antibodies with acetylcholinesterases from various species and their ability to inhibit catalytic activity were determined. Eight antibodies were found to inhibit ...
