J. Kriegsmann et al., DEMONSTRATION OF MEMBRANE-ASSOCIATED PHOSPHOLIPASE-A(2) IN CULTIVATEDHEART-MUSCLE CELLS BY IMMUNOGOLD-TECHNIQUE IN SURFACE REPLICAS, Acta histochemica, 95(1), 1993, pp. 61-66
Recently we produced mAb's to phospholipase A2 (PlA2) from bee venom f
or different purposes (allergen-identification and -standardization).
Obviously one of these monoclonal antibodies ''5D5'' binds to a conser
ved (cross reactive) epitope of membrane PlA2 of intact cells. In this
study we demonstrate binding of 5D5 to membrane associated phospholip
ase A2 of rat heart muscle cells by means of two-step immunogold techn
ique in combination with replica technique.
