Abstract: | Monoclonal antibodies raised against extracts of the rachis abscission zone of Sambucus nigra L. were selected for high reactivity towards abscission-zone proteins. One antibody (YZ1/2.23) has been shown to cross-react, by both indirect and competition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and by Western blotting, with a number of plant enzymes including horseradish peroxidase, rice -glucosidase, almond -glucosidase and the lectins from Phaseolus vulgaris and Erythrina cristagalli.The major N-linked oligosaccharide isolated from horseradish peroxidase has the sequence Man 3(Man6)(Xyl2)Man4GlcNAc4(Fuc3) GlcNAc. This oligosaccharide was found to be a potent inhibitor of the binding of YZ1/2.23 to the intact glycoprotein. The common determinant is therefore contained within this structure.Abbreviations ELISA enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay - Fuc fucose - GlcNAc N-acetylglucosamine - HRP horseradish peroxidase - Ig immunoglobulin - Man mannose - SDS-PAGE Sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis - Xyl xylose |
