title: [Monoclonal antibodies to the angiotensin-converting enzyme from the human lung].
abstract: The hybridoma producing monoclonal antibody (IgG1) to human angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) has been prepared by fusion of murine myeloma P3O1 with spleen cells of BALB/c mice immunised with a purified human lung ACE preparation. A high specificity of monoclonal antibody (MAb) binding to immobilized ACE has been demonstrated by ELISA; that of soluble ACE--by immunoadsorption test. The latter technique permits the use of impure ACE preparations for the screening procedure. This MAb did not effect ACE activity. This antibody is believed useful not only for immunoassay and immunopurification of ACE, but also as a tool for investigation of enzyme distribution in tissue as well as for studying the structure and mechanism of ACE action.
