Abstract:
Using 22 monoclonal antibodies (McAbs) as probe to analyse the antigenic determinants of crystallized Tian Hua Fen (THF) or Trichosanthin protein in ELISA additivity test was reported. The 22 McAbs were come from five fusions, each from different fusion well. The isotype of 22 McAbs were identified by immunodiffusioo test, 20 McAbs belong to IgG_1 subclass, 1 IgG_(2a) subclass and 1 IgM class. Based on the results obtained from ELISA additivity test, 22 McAbs could be clustered into six distinct groups. It indicates that there are six different antigenic determinants in crystallized THF, each can be recognized by some McAbs. The results coincide with the calculation of B cell recognized antigenic determinants obtained by prediction from amino acid sequences of THF protein, The work has laid a foundation for further exploring the structure-function relationship of THF protein on molecular level .
