Production of monoclonal antibodies against epitopes of the main coat protein of filamentous fd phages

Journal of Immunological Methods

Abstract

Three monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) were produced which react with epitopes of the main structural coat protein (pVIII) of filamentous fd phages as demonstrated by solid-phase fluorometric enzyme immunoassays and by immunoelectron microscopy. The antibodies are of the IgG1, IgG2a and IgG2b immunoglobulin subclasses. Since they also react with recombinant phages expressing antigen fragments in their pIII region they may be suitable reagents for the demonstration and isolation of filamentous phages used in recombinant protein technology.

Antibody Specificity

Antibodies produced by B cells are highly specific for antigen as a result of random gene recombination and somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. As the main effector of the humoral immune system, antibodies can neutralize foreign cells. Find the latest research on antibody specificity here.

Bacteriophage: Phage Therapy

Phage therapy uses bacterial viruses (bacteriophages) to treat bacterial infections and is widely being recognized as an alternative to antibiotics. Here is the latest research.
