Abstract

Current methods for diagnosing transmissible spongiform encephalopathies rely on the degradation of the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) and the subsequent detection of the protease-resistant remnant of the pathological prion isoform PrP(Sc) by antibodies that react with all forms of PrP. We report on a monoclonal antibody, V5B2, raised against a peptide from the C-terminal part of PrP, which recognizes an epitope specific to PrP(Sc). In cryostat sections from Creutzfeldt-Jacob's disease (CJD) patients' brains, V5B2 selectively labels various deposits of PrP(Sc) without any pretreatment for removal of PrP(C). V5B2 does not bind to non-CJD brain samples or to recombinant PrP, either in its native or denatured form. Specificity for PrP is confirmed by a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay utilizing V5B2, which discriminates between CJD and normal samples without proteinase K treatment, and by immunoprecipitation from CJD brain homogenate. The PrP(Sc)-specific epitope is disrupted by denaturation. We conclude that the C-terminal part of PrP in disease-associated PrP(Sc) aggregates forms a structural epitope whose conformation is distinct from that of PrP(C).

摘要

目前诊断传染性海绵状脑病的方法依赖于细胞朊蛋白(PrP(C))的降解,以及随后通过与所有形式的PrP发生反应的抗体来检测病理性朊病毒异构体PrP(Sc)的蛋白酶抗性残余物。我们报道了一种针对PrP C末端肽产生的单克隆抗体V5B2,它识别PrP(Sc)特有的一个表位。在克雅氏病(CJD)患者大脑的冷冻切片中,V5B2无需对PrP(C)进行任何预处理去除就能选择性地标记PrP(Sc)的各种沉积物。V5B2不与非CJD脑样本或重组PrP结合,无论是天然形式还是变性形式。利用V5B2的夹心酶联免疫吸附测定法证实了对PrP的特异性,该方法在不进行蛋白酶K处理的情况下就能区分CJD和正常样本,并且通过从CJD脑匀浆中进行免疫沉淀也得到了证实。疾病相关的PrP(Sc)聚集体中PrP的C末端部分的表位会因变性而被破坏。我们得出结论,疾病相关的PrP(Sc)聚集体中PrP的C末端部分形成了一个结构表位,其构象与PrP(C)不同。
