A complement-dependent neutralizing monoclonal antibody against glycoprotein II of pseudorabies virus.
A monoclonal antibody (MAb), 1.21, was produced against pseudorabies virus (PRV). It exhibited virus neutralization activity only in the presence of complement. Immunoblot analysis after sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of virions revealed that MAb 1.21 bound with the 230 kilodalton (kD) virus protein only under non-reducing conditions. This protein was purified by immuno-affinity chromatography using MAb 1.21 and was found to be composed of three subunits, 60, 70 and 120 kD polypeptides when analyzed by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. This protein is probably glycoprotein II of PRV.
