Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies which react with the human influx peptide transporter are provided. The human influx peptide transporter-reactive antibodies are useful in the purification of influx peptide transporter and in immunoassays to identify agents taken up into the cell by the human influx peptide transporter mechanism.
Claims6
A method of isolating human influx peptide transporter comprising:
- (a) immobilizing a monoclonal antibody (Mab), which binds to human influx peptide transporter protein of approximately 120,000 Dalton, antigen binding fragments or chimerics thereof, said chimerics having a human constant region substituted for a mouse constant region, reactive with human influx peptide transporter onto a surface.
A method of identifying human influx peptide transporter in a biological sample comprising:
- (a) contacting the sample with a Mab, which binds to human influx peptide transporter protein of approximately 120,000 Dalton, antigen binding fragments or chimerics thereof, said chimerics having a human constant region substituted for a mouse constant region, reactive with the human influx peptide transporter.
