By using human calcitonin (hCT), human calcitonin-gene-related peptide (hCGRP), and a synthetic peptide with a sequence analogous to the 34 C-terminal amino acids of human preprocalcitonin (designated as PQN-34) as haptens in the generation of monoclonal antibodies, we assessed the role of amido and amino groups in paratope-epitope binding. By using peptide inhibition experiments and solid-phase immunoassays, monoclonal anti-hCT antibody CT07 and monoclonal anti-hCGRP antibody CGR01 were found to bind to an antigenic determinant located in the C-terminal segment of the hormones. These epitopes comprise the seven C-terminal amino acids of the hormones, and the presence of the hormone-ending carboxamide group was found to be essential for antibody binding. The corresponding heptapeptides, either bearing a carboxyl group or else linked to a glycine residue at their C-terminal part, failed to react with the antibodies. Moreover, these monoclonal antibodies did not bind to synthetic peptides analogous to the C-terminal region of the hormone precursor molecules that comprised the epitope site flanked by a peptide sequence. In an attempt to assess whether amido groups when present on the side-chain of amino acids may also modulate antibody binding, a monoclonal antibody referred to as QPO1 was produced and was found to recognize an antigenic determinant localized in the N-terminal region of the PQN-34 peptide bearing a glutamine residue as the N-terminal amino acid. The epitope was found to correspond to a topographic assembled site, and binding of QPO1 was found to be substantially dependent on the presence of the free amino and the side-chain amido groups borne by the N-terminal glutamine residue of this peptide PQN-34. In contrast to these findings, an antigenic determinant located in the internal sequence of calcitonin and recognized by monoclonal anti-hCT antibody CT08 was found to be expressed on the mature form of the hormone, as well as on synthetic peptides with sequence mimicking that of preprocalcitonin. These data should guide the choice of synthetic peptide haptens for the production of anti-protein antibodies. 相似文献

Carboxy-terminal regions on the surface of tubulin and microtubules. Epitope locations of YOL1/34, DM1A and DM1B 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Tryptic and cyanogen bromide peptides of pig brain alpha- and beta-tubulin reacting with monoclonal antibodies YOL1/34, DM1A and DM1B have been isolated and identified. They all correspond to parts of the C-terminal regions of either alpha- or beta-tubulin, and those peptides reacting with a given antibody have overlapping sequences. In the case of YOL1/34, its relatively high reactivity with small peptides suggests that many of the determinants for this antibody are within the overlapping region of these peptides comprising only nine amino acids in positions alpha 414 to 422. The smallest common region of peptides reacting with the other alpha-tubulin antibody DM1A corresponds to positions alpha 426 to 450, whereby amino acids within the positions 426 and 430 appear to be particularly important for reactivity. Since the last C-terminal residues of alpha-tubulin are also accessible to antibodies and enzymes, it seems that an extensive part (35 to 40 residues) of this very acidic C-terminal domain is exposed on the surface of native tubulin dimers. In microtubules, however, the amino-terminal end of this region appears to be less accessible, as YOL1/34 reacts poorly, if at all, with intact microtubules. All of the peptides reacting with beta-tubulin monoclonal antibody DM1B were derived from the acidic C-terminal domain and they overlapped in positions beta 416 to 430. This indicates that beta-tubulin is also positioned with at least part of its acidic C-terminal domain on the surface of microtubules, since DM1B reacts with unfixed microtubules after microinjection. 相似文献

Invariant chain associates with HLA class II antigens via its extracytoplasmic region 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Complexes of HLA class II alpha- and beta-chains with invariant chain were proteolytically digested to study domain interactions between these molecules. Detergent extracts of metabolically labeled monensin-treated B lymphoblastoid cells (B-LCL) were digested with proteinase K and immunoprecipitated with anti-HLA-DR or anti-invariant chain antibodies. Subsequent two-dimensional polyacrylamide amide gel electrophoresis showed that proteinase K treatment results in the sequential generation of three polypeptides of approximately 21,500, 19,500, and 18,000 daltons respectively. All are proteolytic fragments derived from invariant chain, and all remain associated with class II antigens. Two-dimensional gels of endoglycosidase H-treated immunoprecipitates showed that all three fragments contain two N-linked oligosaccharides. Neuraminidase treatment of immunoprecipitates and Bandeiraea simplicifolia lectin binding of cell extracts showed that the largest fragment, but not the smallest fragment, also contains O-linked oligosaccharides. None of the fragments possess the transmembrane region; fragments were released in soluble form when biosynthetically labeled B-LCL were ruptured by freezing and thawing and intact membranes were separated from aqueous components by ultracentrifugation. Lack of the transmembrane sequence was confirmed on the 18,000 dalton fragment by demonstrating through specific peptide cleavage at tryptophanyl residues that this fragment retains a substantial portion of the C-terminal region of I chain beyond trp162. Retention of the C-terminal region excludes the presence of the transmembrane region when m.w. are considered. Our data, taken in context of the amino acid sequence of the invariant chain predicted by the cDNA clone, demonstrate that invariant chain interacts with class II antigens via its extracytoplasmic region. 相似文献

HPC-1/syntaxin 1A is a member of the syntaxin family, and functions at the plasma membrane during membrane fusion as the target-soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor-attachment protein receptor (t-SNARE). We identified the membrane-anchoring region of HPC-1/syntaxin 1A, and examined its role in anchoring of a protein to the plasma membrane. A series of mutants was created from a cysteine-less mutant of HPC-1/syntaxin 1A by substitution of each residue at the C-terminus with cysteine. The accessibility of the thiol-groups in each mutant was analyzed in vivo. The cysteine (C145) within the N-terminal cytosolic segment was labeled, but not that at C271 or C272, or any of those introduced at the C-terminus. The addition of additional residues to the C-terminal tail of HPC-1/syntaxin 1A allowed labeling by thiol-specific reagents. A monoclonal antibody directed against the C-terminal tail peptide did not react with the protein located at the plasma membrane. In addition, subcellular fractionation and immunocytochemical analyses with various transmembrane mutants showed that the C-terminal tail comprising eight amino acids is essential for anchoring of HPC-1/syntaxin 1A to the plasma membrane. These results indicate that the C-terminal membrane-anchoring region, which comprises 23 amino acids, does not traverse the lipid-bilayer and that the C-terminal tail is essential for anchoring of HPC-1/syntaxin 1A to the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Production and characterization of a monoclonal antibody against the seed lectin of the Dolichos biflorus plant 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Spleen cells from mice immunized with the Dolichos biflorus seed lectin were fused with cells from the mouse myeloma Sp2/O-Ag14 cell line to form hybridomas. Those hybridomas producing antibodies against the seed lectin were cloned at least four times and the monoclonal antibodies from clone C11/64-56.28 were characterized and found to be specific for Subunit I of the lectin; they do not react with the structurally similar Subunit II. In previous studies, we have shown that although these two subunits appear to differ only at their COOH-terminal ends, only Subunit I has carbohydrate binding activity. Using a solid phase enzyme immunoassay, the antigenic determinant fr the monoclonal antibody was found to be located on the COOH-terminal cyanogen bromide fragment of this subunit. The monoclonal antibody inhibits the ability of the lectin to agglutinate erythrocytes and N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, the specific hapten for the lectin, inhibits the ability of the antibody to combine with the lectin. These results suggest that the monoclonal antibody recognizes a determinant that is located either at or near the active site of the lectin or that is conformationally interdependent with the active site. 相似文献

A human Ia cytoplasmic determinant located on multiple forms of invariant chain (gamma, gamma 2, gamma 3) 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

An antigenic determinant present in the cytoplasm, but not on the surface membrane of human Ia+ cells, is defined by a monoclonal antibody (VIC-Y1) and is shown by immunoprecipitation and by NEPHGE to be expressed by Ia oligomers. Immunoprecipitations of cellfree translates and of purified Ia subunits indicate that the VIC-Y1 determinant is located on the Ia gamma-(invariant) chain, as well as on two other related molecules, provisionally termed gamma 2 and gamma 3. Within our experimental conditions, the three forms of gamma-chains co-precipitate exclusively with Ia oligomers. As detected by VIC-Y1 and in the limits of our assays, gamma-chains could not be found at the cell surface; their tissue distribution, determined by cytoplasmic indirect immunofluorescence with VIC-Y1, closely resembles that of Ia antigens, with the possible exception of acute lymphatic leukemia cells (Ia+, gamma-chain-). 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies that bind a large molecular weight plasma membrane protein of Acanthamoeba castellanii cause the cells to differentiate. A different monoclonal antibody that binds specifically to the major plasma membrane protein has no effect upon cell division or differentiation. The induction of differentiation by the monoclonal antibodies requires a bivalent attachment, more than a single binding cycle of the antibody to the plasma membrane protein, does not require cell-cell contact, and appears to be mediated by an inhibition of pinocytosis. These results suggest one of two alternatives: either this free living amoeba possesses a cell surface receptor that serves to initiate the differentiation process when stimulated, or the specific plasma membrane antigen for the differentiation-inducing monoclonal antibodies is an essential component of the pinocytotic mechanism. While it seems more likely on the basis of available evidence that we are observing the biological effects of a cell surface receptor, either of the two alternative circumstances open up investigative areas of large significance. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibody as a probe for structure and function of an Escherichia coli outer membrane protein 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Eight independently derived monoclonal antibodies directed against the LamB protein were produced and characterized. By using these antibodies as probes, we identified four distinct topological and functional regions in the LamB molecule. Four monoclonal antibodies recognize antigenic determinants of the protein exposed on the outer side of the membrane. Two of these have their binding sites located in a region involved in maltose transport. One monoclonal antibody presumably binds to a determinant which is normally hidden in the membrane and three monoclonal antibodies recognize determinants facing the periplasmic space. 相似文献

Evidence for an IgD homologue on chicken lymphocytes 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Chicken lymphocyte membrane immunoglobulins (Ig), were precipitated with mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for heavy and light chain isotypes and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Very little or no membrane-bound IgG and IgA was detected. After sequential precipitation and removal of IgM reactive with any of three monoclonal anti-mu antibodies, anti-light chain antibody precipitated residual Ig with a relative electrophoretic mobility similar to that of IgM. Under reducing conditions, these surface Ig molecules had a heavy chain that appeared slightly larger (approximately 81,000 daltons) than mu-chain (approximately 79,000 daltons), and light chains of approximately 25,000 daltons. Complete clearance of membrane-bound IgM reactive with an anti-mu allotype antiserum left similar molecules precipitate by monoclonal anti-light chain antibody. These non-IgM molecules could be detected on the surface of lymphocytes from blood, spleen, bursa and the B cell line RAV-1, but not from thymus or blood from an agammaglobulinemic chicken. After capping of B cell surface IgM with anti-mu, immunofluorescent staining with anti-light chain antibody revealed residual Ig molecules disturbed across the surface of more than 90% of the IgM-bearing cells. The data suggest the existence of an avian homologue of mammalian IgD. Affinity-purified goat anti-mu antibodies and a fourth monoclonal anti-mu antibody reacted with both IgM and the putative IgD molecules, which suggests that the IgD homologue shares at least one common determinant with chicken IgM. 相似文献

We have cloned and sequenced a cDNA for the rabbit gastric proton-potassium pump (H+/K(+)-ATPase) alpha-subunit. The deduced peptide contains 1035 amino acids (Mr 114,201) and shows 97% sequence identity with the respective rat and hog proteins. A monoclonal antibody 146-14 has been shown previously to react with the extracytoplasmic side of the catalytic H+/K(+)-ATPase subunit and here we show that the epitope is in the region between amino acids 855 and 902 (the numbering of the H+/K(+)-ATPase catalytic subunit throughout the paper refers to the rabbit sequence). The localization of this epitope in conjunction with previously observed trypsin cleavage sites in the C-terminal one third of the enzyme and the hydrophobicity plot of the deduced peptide sequence are evidence for a structural model for the alpha-subunit of the H+/K(+)-ATPase which contains at least ten membrane spanning segments, similar to that deduced for the Ca(2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

Twenty monoclonal antibodies were produced against trophozoites of Entamoeba histolytica strains HK-9 and HM-1: IMSS. When reactivity to various enteric protozoa was examined by an indirect fluorescence antibody test, 15 of the monoclonal antibodies were strongly reactive with E. histolytica trophozoites. Species-specific antigens recognized by these monoclonal antibodies were located on the plasma membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, and cytoskeletal structures of the trophozoites. Two of the remaining five monoclonals reacted strongly with trophozoites of the E. histolytica -like Laredo strain. The determinant antigen was located in the cytoplasm. The three remaining monoclonal antibodies were found to recognize cross-reactive antigens between E. histolytica and E. histolytica -like Laredo, E. hartmanni, E. coli, Dientamoeba fragilis, Giardia lamblia , and Trichomonas hominis. These three antibodies were also reactive with T. vaginalis 相似文献

The structure of an antigenic determinant in a protein 总被引:179,自引:0,他引:179
The immunogenic and antigenic determinants of a synthetic peptide and the corresponding antigenic determinants in the parent protein have been elucidated. Four determinants have been defined by reactivity of a large panel of antipeptide monoclonal antibodies with short, overlapping peptides (7-28 amino acids), the immunizing peptide (36 amino acids), and the intact parent protein (the influenza virus hemagglutinin, HA). The majority of the antipeptide antibodies that also react strongly with the intact protein recognize one specific nine amino acid sequence. This immunodominant peptide determinant is located in the subunit interface in the HA trimeric structure. The relative inaccessibility of this site implies that antibody binding to the protein is to a more unfolded HA conformation. This antigenic determinant differs from those previously described for the hemagglutinin and clearly demonstrates the ability of synthetic peptides to generate antibodies that interact with regions of the protein not immunogenic or generally accessible when the protein is the immunogen. 相似文献

The translocation of heat shock protein 70 (mHsp70) into the plasma membrane has been found to be associated with various
cancers including breast cancer, head-and-neck cancer, and acute myeloid leukemia. Parts of the C-terminal substrate-binding
domain (SBD) of mHsp70 are accessible to binding by monoclonal antibodies (mAb). One of these mAbs, cmHsp70.1, has been extensively
studied and showed promising results as diagnostic and therapeutic antibody. Here, we describe cloning and humanization of
cmHsp70.1 by complementarity determining region grafting resulting in an antibody (humex) possessing a similar affinity (3
nM) as the parental antibody and an improved production and thermal stability. Epitope mapping confirmed that the parental,
chimeric, and humanized antibodies recognize the same region including amino acids 473–504 of the SBD. Hence, this humanized
antibody provides a basis for further development of an anti-mHsp70 antibody therapy. 相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies to different parts of bacteriorhodopsin were raised to define its topography in the membrane. It is shown that the amino acid residue Glu 194 is a part of an antigenic determinant and should be located on the membrane surface. We found that the removal of the C-terminal 17 amino acid sequence does not affect the efficiency of the proton transport in bacteriorhodopsin. From a combination of proteolysis and secondary structure prediction methods an experimentally testable structural model for bovine rhodopsin is presented. The complete amino acid sequence of the transducin γ-subunit consisting of 69 residues was determined. 相似文献

We prepared monoclonal antibodies against penicillin-binding protein 1B (PBP 1B) of Escherichia coli to study the membrane topology, spatial organization, and enzyme activities of this protein. The majority of the antibodies derived with PBP 1B as the immunogen reacted against the carboxy terminus. To obtain monoclonal antibodies recognizing other epitopes, we used PBP 1B lacking the immunodominant carboxy-terminal 65 amino acids as the immunogen. Eighteen monoclonal antibodies directed against membrane-bound PBP 1B were isolated and characterized. The epitopes recognized by those monoclonal antibodies were located with various truncated forms of PBP 1B. We could distinguish four different epitope areas located on different parts of the molecule. Interestingly, we could not isolate monoclonal antibodies against the amino terminus, although they were specifically selected for. This is attributed to its predicted extreme hydrophilicity and flexibility, which could make the amino terminus very sensitive to proteolytic degradation. All antibodies reacted against native PBP 1B in a dot-blot immunobinding assay. One monoclonal antibody also recognized PBP 1B in a completely sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured form. This suggests that all the other monoclonal antibodies recognize conformational epitopes. These properties make the monoclonal antibodies suitable tools for further studies. 相似文献

Two monoclonal antibodies reacted with the Trypanosoma cruzi-specific antigen of an apparent Mr 25,000 from all developmental forms (Tachibana et al. 1986). This T. cruzi-specific antigen was found at the plasma membrane by immunoperoxidase electron microscopy using the monoclonal antibodies TCF48 and TCF87. The TCF48 and TCF87-treated cells showed stain deposits at the plasma membrane clearly distinguishable from those in cells treated with a monoclonal antibody against a surface antigen. This suggests that the epitope(s) of the Mr 25,000 antigen is located on the inner surface or in the matrix of the plasma membrane. TCF48 and TCF87 also reacted with an antigen on the microtubules of the axoneme, but not with the subpellicular microtubules. These results suggest that the T. cruzi-specific Mr 25,000 antigen is common to both the plasma membrane and axoneme but it is not located at the subpellicular microtubules. Its identity and that of the surface antigen, Gp25 (Scharfstein et al. 1983) as well as its role in the pathogenicity of the parasite are discussed. 相似文献

When located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, B-cell receptor associated protein 31 (BAP31) is involved in the export of secreted proteins from the ER to the plasma membrane. In a previous study, we generated two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), 297-D4 and 144-A8, that bound to surface molecules on human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), but not to surface molecules on mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Subsequent studies revealed that the mAbs recognized BAP31 on the surface of hESCs. To investigate the membrane topology of BAP31 on the cell surface, we first examined the epitope specificity of 297-D4 and 144-A8, as well as a polyclonal anti-BAP31 antibody (α-BAP31). We generated a series of GST-fused BAP31 mutant proteins in which BAP31 was serially deleted at the C- terminus. GST-fused BAP31 mutant proteins were then screened to identify the epitopes targeted by the antibodies. Both 297-D4 and 144-A8 recognized C-terminal residues 208–217, while α-BAP31 recognized C-terminal residues 165–246, of BAP31 on hESCs, suggesting that the C-terminal domain of BAP31 is exposed on the cell surface. The polyclonal antibody α-BAP31 bound to mESCs, which confirmed that the C-terminal domain of BAP31 is also exposed on the surface of these cells. Our results show for the first time the novel membrane topology of cell surface-expressed BAP31 as the extracellular exposure of the BAP31 C-terminal domain was not predicted from previous studies. 相似文献

To determine the subcellular location of the Streptococcus mutans P1 protein C-terminal anchor, cell envelope fractionation experiments were conducted in combination with Western immunoblotting, using monoclonal antibody MAb 6-8C specific for an epitope that maps near the C terminus of P1 protein and also a polyclonal antibody preparation directed against the P1 C-terminal 144 amino acids (P1COOH). P1 protein was detected in cell walls but not the membrane purified from S. mutans cells by the monoclonal antibody. In contrast, P1 protein was not detected in the same cell wall preparation using the anti-P1COOH polyclonal antibody. However, proteins released from the cell walls by treatment with mutanolysin contained antigen that was recognized by the anti-P1COOH antibody, suggesting that the epitopes recognized by the antibody were masked by peptidoglycan in the cell wall preparations. When cell walls were treated with boiling trichloroacetic acid to solubilize cell-wall-associated carbohydrate, P1 antigen could not be detected in either the solubilized carbohydrate, or in the remaining peptidoglycan, regardless of whether polyclonal or monoclonal antibody was used. However, when the peptidoglycan was treated with mutanolysin, P1 antigen could be detected in the mutanolysin solubilized fraction by MAb 6-8C. Collectively, these data suggest that the C-terminal 144 amino acids of the P1 protein are embedded within the cell wall, and associated exclusively with the peptidoglycan. Furthermore, the ability of the anti-P1COOH antibody to recognize P1 antigen only after mutanolysin treatment of cell walls suggests these C-terminal 144 amino acids are tightly intercalated within the peptidoglycan strands. 相似文献

(1) We have prepared murine monoclonal antibodies to the membrane domain of the human erythrocyte anion transport protein (band 3). (2) All of these antibodies react with regions of the protein located at the cytoplasmic surface of the red cell. (3) One of the antibodies reacts with an epitope present on a cytoplasmic loop of the protein located between the C-terminus and a point 168 amino acids from the C-terminus. The other antibodies recognize different epitopes on the C-terminal tail of the protein and the sequences likely to be involved in these epitopes are defined. (4) Our results show that the C-terminus of the red-cell anion transport protein is located on the cytoplasmic side of the red-cell membrane. (5) None of the antibodies inhibited sulphate exchange transport when introduced into resealed red-cell membranes; however, the bivalent form of one of the antibodies reduced the inhibitory potency of 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene disulphonate on sulphate exchange transport in resealed erythrocyte membranes. (6) Immunostaining of human kidney sections with the antibodies showed strong staining of the basolateral membrane of some but not all of the epithelial cells of distal tubules and the initial connecting segment of collecting tubules. With human liver, only the haematopoeitic cells of fetal liver reacted with all the antibodies. 相似文献
