Two-dimensional gel analysis of a second family of class II molecules by polymorphic HLA-DR4,5, and w9 monoclonal antibodies

Abstract:Human Ia-like, class II molecules were isolated by immunoprecipitation with monoclonal antibodies from various HLA-D/DR homozygous cell lines and were analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The monoclonal antibody PLM12 reacted with B cells carrying DR4, DR5, DRw6.2, and DRw9 phenotypes, and its reactivity perfectly correlated with the previously defined TB21 (MB3-like) specificity. Class II molecules detected by PLM12 were structurally distinct from those precipitated by the anti-DR monoclonal antibody NC1 on all HLA-DR4, DR5, DRw6.2, and DRw9 homozygous cell lines and showed polymorphism in heavy and light chains among these cell lines. The monoclonal antibodies PLM2 and PLM9 only reacted with B cells carrying DR5 and DRw6.2 and also detected a distinct set of class II molecules from those precipitated by NC1 but identical to those of PLM12. Thus, PLM2 and PLM9 serologically detected a new subtypic antigen of the PLM12-reactive class II molecules. Furthermore, the antibody NC1 precipitated two light chains and one heavy chain from HLA-DRw6.2 homozygous cell line EBV-Sh. The result indicated the presence of three sets of class II molecules: two in a DR family and another carrying the polymorphic determinants detected by PLM2, PLM9, and PLM12 in a second family.
