Abstract
We have generated murine monoclonal antibodies (MAb) against Vibrio ch olerae mannose-sensitive hemagglutinin (MSHA) using conventional hybri doma procedures, Seven hybridomas were obtained and one characterized. Hybridoma 2F12/F1 secreted an antibody of the IgG(3) type that reacte d with a 17-kDa antigen corresponding to the product of the mshA gene, This MAb inhibited mannose-sensitive agglutination of chicken erythro cytes by EL tor and O139 vibrios, Vibrios expressing MSHA activity inh ibited binding of the antibody secreted by 2F12/F1 to MSHA-coated micr otiter plates.
