[Preparation and characterization of monoclonal antibodies to human apolipoprotein E]. 1991

V V Shuvaev, and E V Ianushevskaia, and A D Dergunov

Monoclonal antibodies to human apolipoprotein E (apoE) were prepared and characterized. Antibodies of 3D12F11 clone were shown to be specific to apoE and belong to IgG1 subclass. Dissociation constant of antigen-antibody complex in solution was determined as 3.5 +/- 0.5 nM. The antibodies interacted neither heparin- nor lipid-binding sites of human apoE molecule. The obtained antibodies may be useful for metabolic and structural investigations of apoE as well as for clinical studies.

D001057	Apolipoproteins E	A class of protein components which can be found in several lipoproteins including HIGH-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS; VERY-LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS; and CHYLOMICRONS. Synthesized in most organs, Apo E is important in the global transport of lipids and cholesterol throughout the body. Apo E is also a ligand for LDL receptors (RECEPTORS, LDL) that mediates the binding, internalization, and catabolism of lipoprotein particles in cells. There are several allelic isoforms (such as E2, E3, and E4). Deficiency or defects in Apo E are causes of HYPERLIPOPROTEINEMIA TYPE III.
