The monoclonal antibody Jel42 is specific for the Escherichiacoli histidine-containing protein, HPr, which is an 85 aminoacid phosphocarrier protein of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugarphosphotransferase system. The binding domain (Fv) has beenproduced as a single chain Fv (scFv). The scFv gene was synthesizedin vitro and coded for pelB leader peptideheavy chainlinkerlightchain(His)5 tail. The linker is three repeats from theC-terminal repetitive sequence of eukaryotic RNA polymeraseII. This linker acts as a tag; it is the antigen for the monoclonalantibody Jel352. The codon usage was maximized for E.coli expression,and many unique restriction endonuclease sites were incorporated.The scFv gene incorporated into pT7-7 was highly expressed,yielding 1030% of the cell protein as the scFv, whichwas found in inclusion bodies with the leader peptide cleaved.Jel42 scFv was purified by denaturation/renaturation yieldingpreparations with Kd values from 20 to 175 nM. However, basedupon an assessment of the amount of active refolded scFv, thebinding dissociation constant was estimated to be 2.7 ±2.0 nM compared with 2.8 ± 1.6 and 3.7 ± 0.3 nMpreviously determined for the Jel42 antibody and Fab fragmentrespectively. The effect of mutation of the antigen HPr on thebinding constant of the scFv was very similar to the propertiesdetermined for the antibody and the Fab fragment. It was concludedthat the small percentage (~6%) of refolded scFv is a true mimicof the Jel42 binding domain and that the incorrectly foldedscFv cannot be detected in the binding assay. 相似文献
