| Description | It appears to react with synthetic peptide 82-91 and human and bovine 45-91 but not with whole MBP molecules (Martensen numbering). This epitope is located in the C terminal region of 82-91 and the corresponding epitope is not present (or exposed) in whole MBP.The clone was selected using synthetic human MBP peptide 82-91 for screening (1). Since this work was done a seqence error has been described in the human MBP seqence in this region (3). Although the clone was selected to have a high affinity for 82-91 it appears that this antibody reacts more strongly with the unnatural sequence, rather than the correct human 82-91. In consequence the antibody is not a suitable reagent for sensitive immunoassays of correct human 82-91 as was thought at the time the original paper on this antibody was published (1).The 91-92 phe-phe bond is believed to be cleaved by demyelinating lesions by Cathepsin D to generate peptides ending in the phe 91 which should react with this monoclonal. |
