Direct demonstration of an HLA-DR allotypic determinant on the low molecular weight (beta) subunit using a mouse monoclonal antibody specific for DR3
نویسندگان
چکیده
A murine monoclonal antibody directed against a human B cell surface antigen with the characteristics of HLA-DR is described. The antigen detected is tightly linked to HLA and is correlated with the alloantigen HLA-Dw/DR3. Reactivity with a fraction of Dw/DRw6 cells is also observed. The determinant recognized by this antibody has been shown to be present on the smaller molecular weight beta subunit of the HLA-DR antigen.

Isolation and purification of HLA-DR antigen from Daudi cell line by immunoaffinity chromatography
Introduction: The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a group of cell surface proteins that are essential for recognizing foreign molecules in human and other mammals. The physiologic function of MHC molecules is the presentation of peptides to T cells. In this study, we evaluated the purification of a class II MHC molecule (HLA-DR) from a human Burkitt′s lymphoma cell line; Daudi...
متن کاملMultiple HLA-DR antigens: detection with monoclonal antibodies and translation in vitro.
L203 and L227 are mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for human HLA-DR antigens. Their reactivity with multiple, structurally different, HLA-DR antigens was examined by using radioiodinated human lymphoblastoid cells and cell lines, heterozygous or homozygous at the HLA-D locus. Antibody L203 precipitates DR antigens composed of 34,000 Mr heavy chains (alpha), and 28,000-29,000 Mr light chains...

The B-cell alloantigens of an HLA-DR3-homozygous, MB2-homozygous, MT2-positive lymphoblastoid cell line were studied by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Analysis of gel patterns suggested assignment of the HLA-DR3 determinant to the larger (35,000-dalton) subunit (alpha) of the B-cell alloantigen. MB2 was found to be either a determinant on the small (27,000 dalton) subunit (beta) or a cros...
متن کاملHLA class II regulation and structure. Analysis with HLA-DR3 and HLA-DP point mutants
Point mutations that affect HLA-DR structure or expression have not previously been described. In the present study, we isolated such mutants by immunoselection of an ethyl methanesulfonate-mutagenized HLA-DR3 cell line with an anti-HLA-DR3 monoclonal antibody, 16.23. To facilitate analysis, we used a parent cell line with a preexisting deletion of one haplotype encompassing DR and DQ alpha and...

The HLA association with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is highest among individuals heterozygous for DR3 and DR4. To investigate potential mechanisms to account for this association, we performed two-dimensional gel-electrophoretic analysis of HLA molecules from DR3/4 heterozygous patients. These studies demonstrated hybrid molecular dimers corresponding to products of HLA-DQ genes linked...
