H. Shinmoto et al., Epitope analysis of a rice allergen with a monoclonal antibody secreted bya human-mouse hybridoma, BIOTECH LET, 22(22), 2000, pp. 1823-1826
Five human human-mouse hybridomas secreting human monoclonal antibodies to
rice allergens were established. Antibodies secreted from the hybridomas re
acted with 14-16 kDa rice major allergen proteins. Analysis with overlappin
g peptides synthesized on a multi-pin apparatus revealed a binding sequence
of the major rice allergen protein RA17. The antigenic determinant was loc
ated in the C-terminus region of the RA17 protein.
