Antibody produced against isolated Rh(D) polypeptide reacts with other Rh-related antigens.
Rh(D) antigen-containing polypeptide was prepared by immune precipitation of intact cDE/cDE erythrocytes by using a high-titer preparation of polyclonal anti-D. when isolated Rh(D) polypeptide was administered to rabbits, antibody was produced that was unresponsive toward Rh-positive and -negative cells but reacted strongly with the immunogen in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-type immunobind...
متن کاملHuman monoclonal antibody against Rh(D) antigen: partial characterization of the Rh(D) polypeptide from human erythrocytes.
A human monoclonal anti-Rh(D) antibody produced by an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-transformed B-cell line (IgG1(lambda), clone H2D5D2) has been purified on protein A-Sepharose column and used for binding studies and immune precipitation of the blood group rhesus (Rh) antigens. Scatchard plot analyses show that the 125I-labeled antibody (iodo-gen procedure), binds to 1.09 X 10(5), 0.43 X 10(5), and...
متن کاملMolecular biology of the Rh antigens.
The RBC Rh antigens are of large clinical importance, but until recently have been poorly understood at a molecular level. The Rh polypeptides are a family of nonglycosylated Mr 30- to 32-Kd transmembrane proteins that are core structural components of the Rh antigens and have been purified and partially characterized biochemically. Rh polypeptides are present in RBCs from normal humans and oth...
متن کاملRh and LW blood group antigens
History and nomenclature The Rh system is second only to the ABO system in importance in transfusion medicine because Rh antigens, especially D, are highly immunogenic and cause hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTRs). HDFN was first described by a French midwife in 1609 in a set of twins, one of whom was hydropic and stillborn, whereas the o...
متن کاملRh(D) antigen expression and isolation of a new Rh(D) cDNA isoform in human erythroleukemic K562 cells.
Human erythroleukemic K562 cells are known to have several erythroid properties. K562 cells possess Rh mRNAs, but expression of Rh proteins has not previously been reported. We immunoprecipitated Rh protein from K562 cell lysate using rabbit anti-Rh and detected Rh(D) antigens on K562 cells using fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). These results suggest that K562 cells will be useful as...
