چکیده

In this report we briefly describe an immunoglobulin G3 monoclonal antibody, 2G6/1H11, which binds purified lipid A from Salmonella minnesota and a lipid A precursor molecule derived from Salmonella typhimurium. 2G6/1H11 does not bind well to purified whole S. typhimurium lipopolysaccharide (LPS), S. minnesota LPS, LPS preparations from a series of S. minnesota rough mutants, or intact S. typhimurium bacteria. Thus, there are antigenic determinants in purified lipid A which are not exposed when lipid A is presented as part of the whole LPS molecule or intact bacteria.

Identification of Two Epitopes on the Outer Surface Protein A of the Lyme Disease Spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi

A murine IgM monoclonal antibody (MA-2C6) with κ-light chains directed against an antigenic determinant of outer surface protein A (OspA) of the Lyme disease spirochete, Borreliaburgdorferi, is produced. This antibody could bind specifically to OspA antigen of several isolates of B. burgdorferi, but not to the non-Lyme disease bacteria such as T. pallidum and B. hermsii. Antibody MA-2C6 was pur...

Measurement of Affinity Constant of Anti-human IgG Monoclonal Antibodies by an ELISA-based Method

Background: The affinity of an antibody to its antigen is a crucial parameter in its biological activity and performance of an immunoassay such as ELISA. Affinity of most IgG specific MAbs are often determined by methods which require labeling of either antigen or antibody, and are sometimes difficult to control, do not always lead to the expected signal and often result in immunological modifi...

Background and Objectives: Rituximab is an anti-CD20 chimeric monoclonal antibody widely used for the treatment of malignant B cells lymphoma. However, the immunogenicity of murine-derived monoclonal antibodies and the large size of full length antibodies restrict cancer immunotherapy. Humanized single chain antibodies can be a solution and a promising alternative for application in immunothera...

Generation and Evaluation of Monoclonal Autoantibodies in Systemic Lupus Erythematosis

Three murine monoclonal anti-ssDNA autoantibodies have been produced by fusion of spleen cells from NZB/NZW F1 hybrid mice with Sp2/0-Ag 14 murine myeloma cells. Specificity studies characterizing monoclonal anti - ssDNA autoantibodies revealed binding patterns for nucleotides. Clone E-4-1 showed preferential binding with mono-di-and polyguanosine. Clones E-4-4 and E-11-1 specitically bound mon...

99mTc Direct radiolabeling of PR81, a new anti-MUC1 monoclonal antibody for radioimmunoscintigraphy

  Introduction: Monoclonal antibodies labeled mainly with 99mTc are being widely used as imaging agents in nuclear medicine. Recently PR81 was introduced as a new murine anti-MUC1 MAb against human breast carcinoma. This antibody reacts with the tandem repeat of 20-mer peptide of protein backbone, and is of IgG1 class, with an affinity of 2.19×10-8 M-1. Due to high sp...
