Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and transferrin were trapped by biotinylated anti-ACTH antibody and anti-transferrin antibody, respectively, bound to membrane-immobilized avidin. Polypeptides with the sequences SYSMEHFR, SYSMEHFRWGKPVGK and SYSMEHFRWGKPVGKK were bound to the biotinylated anti-ACTH antibody on the membrane-immobilized avidin after the trapped ACTH was digested with trypsin on the membrane and non-binding polypeptides were washed from the membrane. Further, the polypeptides with the sequence SYSMEHFRWGKPVGK and SYSMEHFRWGKPVGKK were trapped by anti-ACTH antibody bound to membrane-immobilized protein A. The antibody recognized the WGKPVGK region of the antigen, ACTH. Polypeptide with the sequence SMGGKEDLIWELLNQAQEHFGKDK was bound to the biotinylated anti-transferrin antibody on the membrane-immobilized avidin after the trapped transferrin was digested with trypsin on the membrane and non-binding polypeptides were washed from the membrane. Further, the polypeptide with the sequence SMGGKEDLIWELLNQAQEHFGKDK was trapped by anti-transferrin antibody bound to membrane-immobilized protein A. The antibody recognized the SMGGKEDLIWELLNQAQEHFGKDK region of the antigen, transferrin. These results thus indicate that the combined methods of membrane-immobilized avidin and protein A can be applied to examine the epitopes of antigens.  相似文献

Avidin from egg white was migrated toward a cathode of nondenaturing electrophoresis and then immobilized on a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) was specifically captured after the biotinylated anti-ACTH antibody was bound to the membrane-immobilized avidin, and the captured ACTH was digested by the biotinylated trypsin on the membrane after extraction. The digested polypeptides from the ACTH were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). These results indicate that target substances can be specifically trapped and digested on membrane-immobilized avidin.  相似文献

Susceptible C3H/He mice were immunized with the avirulent Corpus Christi strain of Trypanosoma cruzi and subsequently infected with virulent Brazil stain organisms. Seventy days after infection sera were isolated and analyzed on western blots of electrophoretically separated T. cruzi antigens prepared from culture-form parasites (primarily epimastigotes). More than 25 bands were identified. The antibodies were fractionated by elution from various regions of western blots corresponding to average molecular weights of approximately greater than 130, 77, 70, 60, 48, or 38 kDa. Each of these antibody preparations was then incubated with strips of nitrocellulose containing all of the electrophoretically separated T. cruzi, and cross-reactivity was determined. Antibodies isolated from the 130-, 77-, and 70-kDa regions all cross-reacted with each other. Antibodies eluted from the 60-kDa region bound antigens in the 60-, 70-, and the 77-kDa regions. More importantly, antibodies eluted from every region bound antigens in the 70-kDa region. Conversely, antibodies eluted from this region bound to antigens in all of the other regions. These data indicate the presence of (a) common antigenic epitope(s) in T. cruzi infections in these mice that is predominantly found in the 70-kDa antigen-antibody complex on western blots.  相似文献

The serum proteome of Equus caballus   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We constructed a reference two-dimensional protein map for horse (Equus caballus) serum. The serum proteins were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE); 29 different gene products were identified. Proteins represented by 25 spots/spot groups were identified by tandem nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry (MS), four by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (TOF) MS and one was sequenced by TOF-TOF technology. The identities of four proteins were deduced by similarity to the human plasma protein database. In selected cases, i.e. the immunoglobulins, immunoblotting with specific antibodies provided additional information about the respective proteins. Albumin was detected as the full-length protein and as fragments of various sizes. Spots representing products of different mass and charge were also detected for alpha1-antitrypsin, haptoglobin and transthyretin. Thus, despite the fact that the Equus caballus genome is incompletely characterized, we were able to identify almost all moderate to high abundance proteins stained in the serum 2-DE pattern.  相似文献

We have synthesized a novel reagent containing dansyl group, iodoacethyl dansylcadaverine (IADC), which specifically alkylates sulfhydryl groups. The carboxyl group of iodoacetic acid was activated with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and was condensed with amino group of dansylcadaverine. Purity and chemical structure of IADC was confirmed with mass spectrometry (MS) and NMR. IADC alkylated GSH but not GSSG, which was confirmed by MS. The reactivity of IADC with proteins was also investigated with Western blotting using anti-dansyl antibody. IADC reacted only with sulfhydryl-containing proteins. The specificity of the interaction of IADC with sulfhydryl groups in proteins was confirmed by adding excessive amount of a well-known sulfhydryl-specific reagent, 5, 5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid), which led to a complete inhibition. To show the usefulness of IADC, the cysteines in glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) from chicken muscle were modified with this reagent, and GAPDH was then digested by lysyl endopeptidase. The peptides generated from digestion of IADC-incorporated GAPDH were applied to an anti-dansyl immunoaffinity column. The peptide fragments bound and eluted from the column were separated by HPLC, and the amino acid sequence of each peptide was analyzed, and peptide was identified as the one containing a Cys residue(s). These data showed that IADC is a useful reagent to specifically identify the positions of a Cys residue(s) in proteins.  相似文献

In a previous study, five monoclonal antibodies against the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) with different epitope specificities were delineated. One of these antibodies which exhibits a high affinity for CEA binds to different carcinoma tissues, to liver tissue, and to granulocytes. This antibody was selected for the immunoaffinity purification of CEA and related antigens from colorectal carcinoma tissue, from spleen tissues, from bile, and from meconium. After elution from the immunosorbent, the antigens were separated by SDS-PAGE, were transferred to nitrocellulose, and were incubated with the five different antibodies. Antibody T84.1 bound to the following antigens: 177 kD and 128 kD from colonic carcinoma, 81 kD from bile, 49 kD from spleen, as well as 165 kD and 100 kD from meconium. Two additional antibodies showed a similar binding pattern. The fourth antibody (CEA.11) bound to the 165 kD meconium antigen and to the two colorectal carcinoma antigens. The fifth antibody (T84.66) showed a strong reaction with the 177 kD colorectal carcinoma antigen and a faint reaction with a 183 kD antigen in meconium. As judged from m.w. and immunochemical properties, the 128 kD colorectal carcinoma antigen and the 100 kD meconium antigen are two novel CEA-related antigens. Because antibody CEA.11 did not bind to the 100 kD meconium antigen in Western blots, the 165 kD antigen could be eluted from a CEA.11 immunosorbent without contamination by the 100 kD antigen. Similarly, as predicted from the binding pattern in the Western blots, the two colorectal carcinoma antigens were separated from each other by a T84.66 immunosorbent.  相似文献

Epithelial ovarian cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death among women. Due to the asymptomatic nature and poor survival characteristic of the disease, screening for specific biomarkers for ovarian cancer is a major health priority. Differentially expressed proteins in the serum of ovarian cancer patients have the potential to be used as cancer-specific biomarkers. In this study, proteomic methods were used to screen 24 serum samples from women with high-grade ovarian cancer and compared to a control group of 11 healthy women. Affigel-Blue treated serum samples were processed either by linear (pH 4-7) or narrow range (pH 5.5-6.7) IEF strips for the first dimension. Proteins separated in first dimension were resolved by 8-16% gradient SDS-PAGE. Protein spots were visualized by SYPRO Ruby staining, imaged by FX-imager and compared and analyzed by PDQuest software. Twenty-two protein spots were consistently differentially expressed between normal and ovarian cancer patients by resolving proteins in a linear pH strip of 4-7 for the first dimension. Six of the protein spots, significantly up-regulated in grade 3 ovarian cancer patients (p < 0.05), were identified by MALDI-TOF MS and Western blotting as the isoforms of haptoglobin precursor. When serum proteins were resolved on narrow pH range strips (5.5-6.7), 23 spots were consistently differentially expressed between normal and grade 3 ovarian cancer patients. Of these, 4 protein spots significantly down regulated in grade 3 ovarian cancer patients (p < 0.05) were identified by MALDI-TOF MS and Western blotting, as isoforms of transferrin precursor. Increased expression of serum haptoglobin and transferrin was also identified in peritoneal tumor fluid obtained from women diagnosed with grade 2/3 ovarian cancer (n = 7). Changes in the expression of haptoglobin and transferrin in the serum of women with different pathological grades of ovarian cancer was examined by one-dimensional Western blotting method. Serum samples collected from women suffering from benign, borderline, grade 1, grade 2 and grade 3 cancer (n = 4 for haptoglobin and n = 5 for transferrin in each group) were analyzed and compared to the serum of normal healthy women. The mean serum haptoglobin expression in grade 3 ovarian cancer patients was fourfold higher than in the control subjects (p < 0.05). On the other hand, transferrin expression in grade 3 ovarian cancer patients was decreased by twofold than in normal healthy women (p < 0.05). Haptoglobin expression in the serum of cancer patients (n = 7) decreased following chemotherapy (six cycles of taxol/carboplatin). Concomitant with the decrease of haptoglobin, transferrin expression remained constant in four patients, but increased in three out of seven patients included in the study. Changes in serum expression of haptoglobin correlated with the change of CA 125 levels before and after chemotherapy. In conclusion, proteomic profiling of differentially expressed proteins in the sera of normal women compared to women with ovarian cancer can greatly facilitate the discovery of a panel of biomarkers that may aid in the detection of ovarian cancer with greater specificity.  相似文献

The autologous immune response of AKR/J mice to the structural proteins of murine leukemia virus (MuLV) was examined. Immunoglobulins from the renal glomeruli were chemically eluted, separated from antigens, recovered, and tested for immunological reactivity against MuLV structural proteins. Analyzing immune precipitates obtained after mixing radiolabeled Tween-disrupted MuLV preparations with eluates from AKR/J mice on sodium dodecyl sulfategel electrophoresis, we found evidence of antibodies to the major classes of MuLV structural components: gp70, gp45, p30, and one or more proteins in the 10,000- to 15,000-dalton class. Using rate zonal centrifugation we confirmed that the eluates from AKR/J glomeruli contained antibody(s) that bound specifically to p30. These results indicate that AKR/J mice spontaneously mount immune responses against the major oncornavirus polypeptide antigens.  相似文献

Osteoporosis is one of the major bone-related diseases. Among the biomarkers of bone resorption, type I collagen cross-linked N-telopeptides (NTx) are terminal metabolites specifically derived from the degradation of bone collagen, thus, the level of NTx in urine has been regarded as a highly specific index for bone resorption. Our previous studies have identified a synthetic peptide fragment in the N-terminal of NTx (peptide P2) with highest affinity for anti-NTx antibodies by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and surface plasma resonance-based methods. The objective of this study is to prepare the mouse anti-P2 polyclonal antibodies (anti-P2 Ab) and develop an immunonanoprobe-based matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) method for detection of fragment of NTx of type I collagen. Anti-P2 Ab were prepared, purified, characterized, and used to produce Ab-conjugated magnetic nanoparticles (Ab@MNPs) for specifically isolation of different concentrations of Ab-bound P2 standards. The profile of P2 standards which were bound to Ab–NPs was analyzed by combining immunoaffinity MNPs with MALDI-TOF MS. We demonstrated that an immunoaffinity nanoprobe-based MALDI-TOF MS method for detecting the fragment of NTx, and might provide a tool to discover a promising biomarker of osteoporosis. The potential of this method for early diagnosis of osteoporosis will be further investigated by recruiting osteoporosis patients from our collaborative hospitals.  相似文献

Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is a devastating complication occurring in 5% of breast cancer patients. However, the current 'gold standard' of diagnosis, namely microscopic examination of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), is false-negative in 25% of patients at the first lumbar puncture. In a previous study, we analyzed a set of 151 CSF samples (tryptic digests) by MALDI-TOF and detected peptide masses that were differentially expressed in breast cancer patients with LM. In the present study, we obtain for a limited number of samples exact masses for these peptides by MALDI-FTICR MS measurements. Identification of these peptides was performed by electrospray FTICR MS after separation by nano-scale LC. The database results were confirmed by targeted high mass accuracy measurements of the fragment ions in the FTICR cell. The combination of automated high-throughput MALDI-TOF measurements and analysis by FTICR MS leads to the identification of 17 peptides corresponding to 9 proteins. These include proteins that are operative in host-disease interaction, inflammation and immune defense (serotransferrin, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin, hemopexin, haptoglobin and transthyretin). Several of these proteins have been mentioned in the literature in relation to cancer. The identified proteins alpha1-antichymotrypsin and apolipoprotein E have been described in relation to Alzheimer's disease and brain cancer.  相似文献

Continuous modes of renal replacement therapy (CRRT) are increasingly being utilized in the intensive care unit. The removal of cytokines and other inflammatory proteins during ultrafiltration may be responsible for some of the beneficial effects of CRRT. We used proteomic tools to identify proteins found in the ultrafiltrate from a patient with acute renal failure. Identification of these proteins could help elucidate the mechanism(s) of improved outcome with continuous renal replacement therapy. Protein was loaded on a reversed-phase C4 column and eluted with stepwise isocratic flows starting with 0%, 5%, 10%, 25%, and 50% of acetonitrile. Effluent was collected, pooled, desalted, and separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE). Reversed-phase separation improved the resolution and the number of spots seen on the gels. Protein spots were digested with trypsin and spotted onto MALDI plates. Proteins were identified by either peptide mass fingerprinting using a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer or by peptide sequencing using a MALDI-TOF/TOF tandem mass spectrometer. From 196 spots cut, 47 were identified, representing multiple charge forms of 10 different proteins. Proteins identified were albumin, apolipoprotein A-IV, beta-2-microglobulin, lithostathine, mannose-binding lectin associated serine protease 2 associated protein, plasma retinol-binding protein, transferrin, transthyretin, vitamin D-binding protein and Zn alpha-2 glycoprotein. Continuous renal replacement therapy is frequently used in acutely ill patients with renal failure. Removal of proteins occurs during this process. The physiological significance of this protein removal is unclear. Identification of these proteins will lead to better understanding of the role of protein removal in continuous renal replacement therapy.  相似文献

One of the problems of plasma proteomics is a presence of large major components. In this work, we use the thermostable fraction as a way to deplete these major proteins. The thermostable fraction of serum samples from patients with ovarian, uterus, and breast cancers and benign ovarian tumor was analyzed using two-dimensional electrophoresis combined with MALDI-TOF(-TOF)-mass spectrometry. Of them, alpha-1-acid glycoprotein and clusterin are expressly down-regulated in breast cancer, whereas transthyretin is decreased specifically in ovarian cancer. Apolipoprotein A-I forms have decreased spot volumes, while haptoglobin alpha1, in contrast, is elevated in several tumors. These data are partly consistent with previous art studies on cancer proteomics, which involve mass-spectrometry-based serum profiling techniques. Serum thermostable fraction may be recommended as a good tool for medium and small protein proteome investigation, in particular, by 2D-electrophoresis.  相似文献

In order to discover novel protein markers indicative of disease processes or drug effects, the proteomics technology platform most commonly used consists of high resolution protein separation by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE), mass spectrometric identification of proteins from stained gel spots and a bioinformatic data analysis process supported by statistics. This approach has been more successful in profiling proteins and their disease- or treatment-related quantitative changes in tissue homogenates than in plasma samples. Plasma protein display and quantitation suffer from several disadvantages: very high abundance of a few proteins; high heterogeneity of many proteins resulting in long charge trains; crowding of 2-DE separated protein spots in the molecular mass range between 45-80 kD and in the isoelectric point range between 4.5 and 6. Therefore, proteomic technologies are needed that address these problems and particularly allow accurate quantitation of a larger number of less abundant proteins in plasma and other body fluids. The immunoaffinity-based protein subtraction chromatography (IASC) described here removes multiple proteins present in plasma and serum in high concentrations effectively and reproducibly. Applying IASC as an upfront plasma sample preparation process for 2-DE, the protein spot pattern observed in gels changes dramatically and at least 350 additional lower abundance proteins are visualized. Affinity-purified polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) are the immunoaffinity reagents used to specifically remove the abundant proteins such as albumin, immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin A, transferrin, haptoglobin, alpha-1-antitrypsin, hemopexin, transthyretin, alpha-2-HS glycoprotein, alpha-1-acid glycoprotein, alpha-2-macroglobulin and fibrinogen from human plasma samples. To render the immunoaffinity subtraction procedure recyclable, the pAbs are immobilized and cross-linked on chromatographic matrices. Antibody-coupled matrices specific for one protein each can be pooled to form mixed-bed IASC columns. We show that up to ten affinity-bound plasma proteins with similar solubility characteristics are eluted from a mixed-bed column in one step. This facilitates automated chromatographic processing of plasma samples in high throughput, which is desirable in proteomic disease marker discovery projects.  相似文献

A novel and ultrasensitive enzyme immunoassay (immune complex transfer two-site enzyme immunoassay) for ferritin is described. Ferritin was reacted simultaneously with affinity-purified dinitrophenyl biotinyl anti-ferritin IgG and affinity-purified anti-ferritin Fab'-beta-D-galactosidase conjugate. The complex formed of the three components was trapped onto affinity-purified (anti-dinitrophenyl group) IgG-coated polystyrene balls. After eliminating excess conjugate by washing, the complex was eluted from the polystyrene balls with an excess of epsilon N-dinitrophenyl-L-lysine and transferred to streptavidin-coated polystyrene balls. The beta-D-galactosidase activity bound to streptavidin-coated polystyrene balls was assayed by fluorometry. Nonspecifically bound beta-D-galactosidase activity was remarkably lowered but there was much less decrease in specifically bound beta-D-galactosidase activity. As a result, the detection limit of ferritin was lowered to 1 milliattomole (1 x 10(-21) mol, 600 molecules as calculated from Avogadro's number). This technique will be useful for measuring, for example, antigens in single cells.  相似文献

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry (MS) fingerprinting has recently become an effective instrument for rapid microbiological diagnostics and in particular for identification of micro-organisms directly in a positive blood culture. The aim of the study was to evaluate a collection of 82 stored yeast isolates from bloodstream infection, by MALDI-TOF MS; 21 isolates were identified also directly from positive blood cultures and in the presence of other co-infecting micro-organisms. Of the 82 isolates grown on plates, 64 (76%) were correctly identified by the Vitek II system and 82 (100%) by MALDI-TOF MS; when the two methods gave different results, the isolate was identified by PCR. MALDI-TOF MS was unreliable in identifying two isolates (Candida glabrata and Candida parapsilosis) directly from blood culture; however, direct analysis from positive blood culture samples was fast and effective for the identification of yeast, which is of great importance for early and adequate treatment.  相似文献

Escherichia coli clones that express Legionella pneumophila antigens were isolated from a plasmid genomic library, and their antigens were characterized by immunoblotting with rabbit anti-L. pneumophila sera. Because previous studies of L. pneumophila antigens by whole-cell radioimmunoprecipitation suggested that comigrating native antigens were surface localized, we conducted experiments to determine if the cloned antigens were surface expressed in E. coli. Aliquots of antisera were absorbed by intact cells of three representative antigen-producing E. coli clones, and surface-bound antibodies were acid eluted from the intact cells. Immunoblots made with selectively absorbed antisera and eluted antibodies confirmed that reactivity to the homologous cloned antigens could be specifically absorbed from the antisera and then eluted from the cells, demonstrating a surface (antibody-accessible) localization in the cloned state. Antibodies eluted from the surface of an E. coli clone that expressed a 19-kilodalton antigen reacted with the surface of L. pneumophila in a liquid-phase, whole-cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In addition, intact cells of this clone were used in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect serum antibody. E. coli cells that express foreign antigens on their surfaces can be used to develop antigen-specific immunoassays and to affinity purify monospecific antibodies.  相似文献

Cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase (CKO; EC 1.5.99.12) irreversibly degrades the plant hormones cytokinins. A recombinant maize isoenzyme 1 (ZmCKO1) produced in the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica was subjected to enzymatic deglycosylation by endoglycosidase H. Spectrophotometric assays showed that both activity and thermostability of the enzyme decreased after the treatment at non-denaturing conditions indicating the biological importance of ZmCKO1 glycosylation. The released N-glycans were purified with graphitized carbon sorbent and analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS. The structure of the measured high-mannose type N-glycans was confirmed by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) on a Q-TOF instrument with electrospray ionization. Further experiments were focused on direct analysis of sugar binding. Peptides and glycopeptides purified from tryptic digests of recombinant ZmCKO1 were separated by reversed-phase chromatography using a manual microgradient device; the latter were then subjected to offline-coupled analysis on a MALDI-TOF/TOF instrument. Glycopeptide sequencing by MALDI-TOF/TOF MS/MS demonstrated N-glycosylation at Asn52, 63, 134, 294, 323 and 338. The bound glycans contained 3-14 mannose residues. Interestingly, Asn134 was found only partially glycosylated. Asn338 was the sole site to carry large glycan chains exceeding 25 mannose residues. This observation demonstrates that contrary to a previous belief, the heterologous expression in Y. lipolytica may lead to locally hyperglycosylated proteins.  相似文献

In this paper, we report on the isolation, purification and identification of two Toxoplasma gondii membrane proteins binding human lactoferrin. Parasite membrane proteins were isolated using the commercial Mem-PER Eukaryotic Membrane Protein Extraction System. After purification by lactoferrin affinity chromatography, three protein bands were detected with the molecular mass of 74, 63 and 58 kDa, two of which (63 and 58 kDa) specifically bound biotin labeled human lactoferrin as examined by competitive inhibition. Further identification of latter proteins by ESI/MS/MS amino acid sequencing technique revealed those proteins as Toxoplasma ROP4 (band 63 kDa) and ROP2 (band 58 kDa) antigens known to be involved in many mechanisms essential for the parasite pathogenicity, including host lactoferrin acquisition as determined in this study.  相似文献

Salivary agglutinin is a high molecular mass component of human saliva that binds Streptococcus mutans, an oral bacterium implicated in dental caries. To study its protein sequence, we isolated the agglutinin from human parotid saliva. After trypsin digestion, a portion was analyzed by matrix-assisted laser/desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), which gave the molecular mass of 14 unique peptides. The remainder of the digest was subjected to high performance liquid chromatography, and the separated peptides were analyzed by MALDI-TOF/post-source decay; the spectra gave the sequences of five peptides. The molecular mass and peptide sequence information showed that salivary agglutinin peptides were identical to sequences in lung (lavage) gp-340, a member of the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich protein family. Immunoblotting with antibodies that specifically recognized either lung gp-340 or the agglutinin confirmed that the salivary agglutinin was gp-340. Immunoblotting with an antibody specific to the sialyl Le(x) carbohydrate epitope detected expression on the salivary but not the lung glycoprotein, possible evidence of different glycoforms. The salivary agglutinin also interacted with Helicobacter pylori, implicated in gastritis and peptic ulcer disease, Streptococcus agalactiae, implicated in neonatal meningitis, and several oral commensal streptococci. These results identify the salivary agglutinin as gp-340 and suggest it binds bacteria that are important determinants of either the oral ecology or systemic diseases.  相似文献

Abstract: Immunochemical properties of bovine and human choline acetyltransferase (ChAT, EC 2.3.1.6, acetyl-CoA:choline- O -acetyltransferase) were studied using six monoclonal antibodies (AB1, AB5, AB6, AB7, AB8, and AB9) reactive with the enzyme. All antibodies except AB1 bound specifically to two proteins of 68,000 and 70,000 MW on "Western" blots of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels containing human or bovine ChAT. The enzyme was specifically absorbed to immobilized antibody and could not be eluted by low pH and/or high salt concentrations, although the enzyme retained activity on the immunoabsorbent. Pure bovine enzyme consisting of the same two proteins as seen in the Western blotting studies was eluted from immobilized AB1 in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Although active enzyme could not be eluted from immobilized antibodies by standard conditions, various combinations of free and immobilized antibodies were effective in competing off bound enzyme. Free antibody AB1 quantitatively eluted the active enzyme from immobilized AB1. The different capacities of the antibodies to elute enzyme from various immunoabsorbents reflect interesting properties of both the enzyme and the antibodies.  相似文献
