A membrane protein (33 kDa) that binds to the globular "heads" of C1q (gC1q-R) has been recently described. The full length cDNA encoding gC1q-R has been cloned, expressed in E. coli and using the purified recombinant protein (rgC1q-R) as an immunogen, a panel of IgG monoclonal antibodies (MAb) has been produced by fusion of spleen cells from hyperimmunized BALB/c mice with NSO mouse myeloma partners. From this fusion, 60 anti-gC1q-R hybridomas were selected and evaluated for their ability to (1) discriminate between the mature form (MF) of gC1q-R (residues 74-282) and a truncated form (TF) lacking residues 74-95, which contains a major C1q binding site, (2) recognize two functionally defined synthetic peptides derived from the NH2-(XN18) and COOH-(XC15) terminus of gC1q-R, and (3) bind to microtiter well fixed intact Raji cells. Several clones were identified: MAbs 46.23 and 60.11 (IgG1 kappa), reacted strongly with ELISA plate-fixed intact Raji and K562 cells, MF, and the XN18 peptide, but had poor or no reactivity with TF; MAbs 74.5.2 > 25.15 (IgG1 kappa) recognized both MF and TF and are directed against epitopes in the XC15 peptide that contains a binding site for high-molecular-weight kininogen and Factor XII.
最近发现了一种与C1q球状“头部”(gC1q-R)结合的膜蛋白(33 kDa)。编码gC1q-R的全长cDNA已被克隆,并在大肠杆菌中表达。利用纯化的重组蛋白(rgC1q-R)作为免疫原,通过将超免疫BALB/c小鼠的脾细胞与NSO小鼠骨髓瘤细胞系融合,制备了一组IgG单克隆抗体(MAb)。从该融合产物中,筛选出60个抗gC1q-R杂交瘤,并评估它们对以下方面的能力:(1)区分gC1q-R的成熟形式(MF,残基74 - 282)和缺少残基74 - 95的截短形式(TF),后者包含一个主要的C1q结合位点;(2)识别源自gC1q-R NH2端(XN18)和COOH端(XC15)的两个功能明确的合成肽;(3)结合微孔板固定的完整Raji细胞。鉴定出了几个克隆:单克隆抗体46.23和60.11(IgG1 κ)与ELISA板固定的完整Raji和K562细胞、MF以及XN18肽强烈反应,但与TF反应较弱或无反应;单克隆抗体74.5.2 > 25.15(IgG1 κ)识别MF和TF,并且针对XC15肽中的表位,该表位包含高分子量激肽原和因子XII结合位点。
