Isolation and fine-structure characterization of four monoclonal antibodies reactive with glycoconjugates containing terminal GlcNAc residues: application to aspects of lacto-series tumor antigen biosynthesis.

Abstract：

:A series of murine monoclonal antibodies, each reactive with terminal GlcNAc residues expressed on glycolipids, have been isolated after immunization with the glycolipid nLc5 (GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1----4GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal beta 1---- 4Glc beta 1----1Cer). The derived antibodies, designated TE-4, TE-5, TE-6, and TE-7, were tested for binding specificity with a variety of terminal GlcNAc-containing oligosaccharides expressed on glycolipids and glycoproteins. Antibody TE-4 was found to be reactive only with linear and branched terminal GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal containing structures present in lacto-series carbohydrates irrespective of core chain length. The binding specificity of TE-7 was similar except that no reactivity was observed with the short chain structure Lc3 and was weakly reactive with branched agalacto-I structures, suggesting a longer recognition epitope than for the TE-4 antibody. Antibodies TE-5 and TE-6 reacted with terminal GlcNAc beta 1----3Gal structures and as well GlcNAc beta 1----2(6)Man structures present on BSA-oligosaccharide conjugates. Weak binding was also observed with GlcNAc beta 1----6Gal structures with these antibodies. TE-5 was found to be particularly sensitive to low amounts of terminal GlcNAc-containing glycolipids in both solid phase assays and in TLC-immunostaining studies of neutral glycolipids extracted from colonic adenocarcinoma cell lines and tumors. No reactivity was observed with internal GlcNAc residues with any antibody tested. The panel of antibodies was applied to studies of binding to Triton X-100-solubilized fractions from normal mucosal and adenocarcinoma cell lines after desialylation and Smith degradation to expose terminal GlcNAc residues on glycoproteins and glycolipids. Binding of antibodies TE-4 and TE-7 was restricted to adenocarcinoma-derived cell fractions. Application of these antibodies in studies of lacto-series core chain synthesis and in immunodiagnostic procedures after initial treatments to concentrate lacto-series antigens into terminal GlcNAc-containing structures is discussed.
