Abstract:
Objective To establish a simple and practical method for screening of Env-specific monoclonal antibodies from HIV-1 infected individuals.Methods Human B cells were purified by negative sorting from PBMCs and memory B cells were further enriched using anti-CD27 microbeads.Gp120 antigen labbled with biotin was incubated with memory B cells to specifically bind IgG on cells membrane.The memory B cells expressing the Env-specific antibody were harvested by magnetic beads separating,counted and diluted to the level of single cell in each PCR well that loading with catch buffer containing RNase inhibitor to get RNAs.The antibody genes were amplified by single cell RT-PCR and nested PCR,cloned into eukaryotic expression vectors and transfected into 293T cells.The binding activity of recombinant antibodies to Env were tested by ELISA.Results Three monocolonal Env-specific antibodies were isolated from one HIV-1 infected individual.Conclusion We can obtain Env-specific antibody by biotin labbled antigen,magnetic beads separating technique coupled with single cell RT-PCR and expression cloning.
