title: Monoclonal antibodies against RNA-dependent DNA polymerase from myeloblastosis-associated viruses.
abstract: Two lines of hybridomas, RT-12 and RT-14, secreting monoclonal antibodies against the reverse transcriptase from myeloblastosis-associated viruses have been prepared. The monoclonal antibodies RT-12 and RT-14 specifically react with reverse transcriptase, as has been shown by radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunoassay techniques after SDS-PAGE and blotting to nitrocellulose membranes. It has been shown that antigenic determinants for RT-12 and RT-14 are stable to SDS denaturation, hence they belong to a linear type; they are located on the alpha subunit of the enzyme.
