The murine monoclonal antibodies TURP-27 and HNK-1 have been shown to detect antigens which are heavily expressed by benign prostatic hyperplasia and carcinoma of the prostate. Western blot analysis of prostate extracts showed that monoclonal antibodies TURP-27 and HNK-1 bound glycoproteins with molecular weights of 180,000,140,000, 120,000,100,000,90,000, and 69,000. Studies have shown that th...

The glycoproteins responsible for calcium-dependent oligodendrocyte aggregation were purified and characterized. Using detergent extraction, lentil-lectin-Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography, and preparative gel electrophoresis, 3 proteins were purified to apparent homogeneity, with relative Mrs of 120,000, 140,000, and 180,000. The aggregation assay showed that all 3 proteins had the ability ...
