Abstract:
:Human mast cell carboxypeptidase (hMC-CP) is a unique product of mast cells. Unlike tryptase and chymase, its potential function and expression in diseased conditions remain largely unknown. To develop an assay for hMC-CP, the recombinant fusion protein of hMC-CP and purified native skin hMC-CP was prepared, and two novel monoclonal antibodies against hMC-CP named CCP1 (IgG1 isotype) and CCP2 (IgM isotype) were raised in the present study. Epitope analysis shows that CCP1 and CCP2 antibodies recognize epitopes located in the region of amino acids 112-202 of hMC-CP, and hydrophilicity analysis implies that epitopes might be located in the amino acid residues 123-134 and 165-177. Furthermore, using a competition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, it was shown that the epitope recognized by CCP1 is close to that recognized by CCP2 or the two antibodies partially share the same epitope. Flow cytometry analysis shows that basophilic leukemia cell line KU812 reacts with both CCP1 and CCP2 antibodies, suggesting that this cell line expresses hMC-CP. In conclusion, although the two antibodies possess different isotypes, they may partially share the same epitope. These two antibodies will be valuable tools for the development of an assay to detect the levels of hMC-CP in the biological fluids in man.
