Measurement of Affinity Constant of Anti-human IgG Monoclonal Antibodies by an ELISA-based Method
Background: The affinity of an antibody to its antigen is a crucial parameter in its biological activity and performance of an immunoassay such as ELISA. Affinity of most IgG specific MAbs are often determined by methods which require labeling of either antigen or antibody, and are sometimes difficult to control, do not always lead to the expected signal and often result in immunological modifi...
متن کاملAssociation and dissociation kinetics of bobwhite quail lysozyme with monoclonal antibody HyHEL-5.
The anti-hen egg lysozyme monoclonal antibody HyHEL-5 and its complexes with various species-variant and mutant lysozymes have been the subject of considerable experimental and theoretical investigation. The affinity of HyHEL-5 for bobwhite quail lysozyme (BWQL) is over 1000-fold lower than its affinity for the original antigen, hen egg lysozyme (HEL). This difference is believed to arise almos...
متن کاملThermodynamic consequences of grafting enhanced affinity toward the mutated antigen onto an antibody. The case of anti-lysozyme antibody, HyHEL-10.
In order to address the mechanism of enhancement of the affinity of an antibody toward an antigen from a thermodynamic viewpoint, anti-hen lysozyme (HEL) antibody HyHEL-10, which also recognize the mutated antigen turkey lysozyme (TEL) with reduced affinity, was examined. Grafting high affinity toward TEL onto HyHEL-10 was performed by saturation mutagenesis into four residues (Tyr(53), Ser(54)...
متن کاملDevelopment of an ELISA Test for Detection of Anti FMD Virus Type A87/IRN Antibody Using Irradiated Antigen
Background and Aims: The aim of this study was application of gamma irradiated FMDV antigen for liquid phase blocking sandwich ELISA (B-ELISA) to quantify guinea pig anti FMDV type A87/IRN antibody. Methods: FMDV type A87/IRN was propagated to a titer of 107.5/ml TCID50 and then irradiated by gamma irradiator. The irradiated 146 S antigen was purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation after in...
متن کاملBlood group incompatibility due to anti C antibody: a case report
Background and Aim: One of the main goals of blood transfusion medicine is to determine the compatibility of the blood products with the patients. Therefore, clinical and laboratory (serologic) evaluations should be done to determine the maximum compatibility (or minimum incompatibility). The most known blood groups is the ABO antigenic system and the most important of them is Rh system. Among ...
