摘要:
The present invention encompasses monoclonal and chimeric antibodies that bind to lipoteichoic acid of Gram positive bacteria. The antibodies also bind to whole bacteria and enhance phagocytosis and killing of the bacteria in vitro and enhance protection from lethal infection in vivo. The mouse monoclonal antibody has been humanized and the resulting chimeric antibody provides a previously unknown means to diagnose, prevent and/or treat infections caused by gram positive bacteria bearing lipoteichoic acid. This invention also encompasses a peptide mimic of the lipoteichoic acid epitope binding site defined by the monoclonal antibody. This epitope or epitope peptide mimic identifies other antibodies that may bind to the lipoteichoic acid epitope. Moreover, the epitope or epitope peptide mimic provides a valuable substrate for the generation of vaccines or other therapeutics.

The present invention encompasses protective monoclonal antibodies that bind to peptidoglycan of Gram-positive bacteria. The antibodies also bind to whole bacteria and enhance phagocytosis and killing of the bacteria in vitro and block nasal colonization by Gram-positive bacteria in vivo. The invention also provides human, humanized and chimeric antibodies. The invention also sets forth the heavy chain and light chain variable regions of an antibody within the invention.
摘要:
Immunoassay for isothiazolones based on monoclonal antibodies that react with isothiazolones, particularly, 5-chloro-2-methyl-3-isothiazolone, hybridomas that produce such antibodies, especially ATCC HB 11435, a method of preparing an immunogenic conjugate of isothiazolones and a macromolecule carrier, a method of producing monoclonal antibodies reactive with isothiazolones, and compositions comprising monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies reactive with isothiazolones.
摘要:
The present invention encompasses monoclonal antibodies that bind to lipoteichoic acid (LTA) of Gram positive bacteria. The antibodies also bind to whole bacteria and enhance phagocytosis and killing of the bacteria in vitro. The invention also provides antibodies having human sequences (chimeric, humanized and human antibodies). The invention also sets forth the variable regions of three antibodies within the invention and presents the striking homology between them.
