Abstract
|

|
|
We have produced a new monoclonal antibody detecting common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CALLA) and designated as KP-22. CALIA detected by KP-22 is expressed on the all of the various cefl lines examined including common ALL. Burkitt's lymphoma, human fibroblasts and cultured normal human fibroblasts. However out of cell lines tested, a fraction of J-ALL and all of myelocytic leukemia and all other nonleukemia cell lines except for fibroblast are CALIA negative. Immunoprecipitation of solubilized 125 I-labeled membrane proteins from cultured human fibroblasts and leukemia cell lines with KP-22 revealed a major polypeptide chain with an apparent molecular weight of approximately 100 Kd and 95 Kd, respectively. Even though a microheterogeneity in terms of molecular weight between two CALLAs, the peptide mapping patterns of them &e identical indicating that such a microheterogeneity seems to be partly due to heterogeneous terminal sialic acid compositions added by a posttranslational modification process.
