Production of Monoclonal Antibody by DNA Immunization with Electroporation

关键词: production monoclonal antibody来源: 互联网

DNA immunization with in vivo electroporation is an efficient alternative protocol for the production of monoclonal antibodies (mAb). Generation of mAb by DNA immunization is a novel approach to circumvent the following technical hurdles associated with problematic antigens: low abundance and protein instability and use of recombinant proteins that lack posttranslational modifications. This chapter describes the use of a DNA-based immunization protocol for the production of mAb against a house dust mite allergen, designated as Blo t 11, which is a paramyosin homologue found in Blomia tropicalis mites. The Blo t 11 cDNA fused at the N terminus to the sequence of a signal peptide was cloned into the pCI mammalian expression vector. The DNA construct was injected intramuscularly with in vivo electroporation into mice, and the specific antibody production in mice was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Hybridomas were generated by fusing mouse splenocytes with myeloma cells using the ClonaCell™ -HY Hybridoma Cloning Kit. Six hybridoma clones secreting Blo t 11 mAb were successfully generated, and these mAb are useful reagents for immunoaffinity purification and immunoassays.
