Abstract：
:To produce bispecific antibodies (BiAbs) for enzyme immunoassay (EIA) to replace antibody-enzyme conjugates, we developed a panel of 8-azaguanine/ouabain-resistant anti-urease variant hybridoma cell lines for use in hybridoma-hybridoma fusions. These variants represent mouse immunoglobulin subclasses IgM, IgG1, IgG2a, and IgG2b and have growth rates equal to those of the parental hybridomas. We fused an anti-urease-secreting variant hybridoma with an anti-human choriogonadotropin (hCG)-secreting hybridoma (both of IgG1 subclass) and selected the desired product with growth media containing hypoxanthine-aminopterin-thymidine (HAT) and ouabain. Over 95% of the resulting hybrids secreted anti-urease, and 60% of these secreted anti-hCG. The bispecific nature of secreted antibodies was demonstrated in a simultaneous EIA where BiAbs, hCG, and urease (EC 3.5.1.5) were incubated together in anti-hCG-coated microwells. As little as 25 int. units of hCG per liter could be reliably detected, which is equivalent to that for antibody-enzyme conjugates in EIA.
