title: Monoclonal antibody NCC-pX-1G reactive with gene products coded from X regions of human T-cell leukemia virus.
abstract: Monoclonal antibody NCC-pX-1G (IgG1, kappa) was obtained by the hybridoma technique by immunization of mice with the C-terminal 54 amino acids of the pX protein, made from the 3'-terminal portion of the pX gene conjugated with bovine growth hormone gene transfected in E. coli. NCC-pX-1G recognized 41 kilodalton pX protein of HTLV-I, and immunocytochemically stained HUT102 and other HTLV-I-infected cell lines, but no reaction was observed with non-HTLV-I-infected cell lines or normal human tissue cells.
