A monoclonal antibody against NCS-chr was prepared and characterized. Because of the instability of NCS-chr, chemically synthesized stable analog compound, termed PS, was used as a hapten of immunogen. The obtained antibody, termed APS, reacted with NCS-chr, but neither with NCS, NCS-polystyrene-maleic acid conjugate (SMANCS), nor UV-irradiated NCS-chr. Epitope analysis using the compounds that have a structure similar to PS showed that APS recognized the total structure, particularly cyclopenten moiety, of PS. These results suggest that APS recognizes the enediyne structure of NCS-chr. Next, the inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for determination of NCS-chr was established. The standard curve showed that the microgram order of NCS-chr were accurately measurable by the established ELISA. Furthermore, it was revealed that the established ELISA was more sensitive than the antibiotic activity determination, termed Bio-assay. The established ELISA will be useful as a quantitative method of NCS-chr.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009353 Zinostatin An enediyne that alkylates DNA and RNA like MITOMYCIN does, so it is cytotoxic. Neocarzinostatin
D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
