Comments
|
Animals were immunized against TC31, a NMRI strain mouse IgM, kappa monoclonal antibody of the IgMa allotype. Spleen cells were fused with Sp2/0-Ag14 myeloma cells. The antibody recognizes the Igh-6.1 allotype on mouse IgM. It reacts with the IgMa but not the IgMb determinant localized to the CH1 domain of the mu heavy chain. DS1 antibody reacts with cells bearing the a,c,f,g,h and j Igh-C haplotypes. This antibody can be used as a typing reagent for mouse IgM of the a,c,f,g,h and j haplotypes. It is useful in typing immunoglobulin transgenic mice in which the IgM locus is involved.
