Monoclonal antibodies to nonhistone proteins associated with human colon cancer nuclear matrix.
Hybridoma technology was applied in an effort to create highly specific probes for nonhistone proteins associated with human colon cancer nuclear matrix. Three stable monoclonal antibodies producing cloned cells No. 39, 54 and 58 are described here. All these antibodies showed high reactivity with human colon tumor nuclear matrix. Both antibodies No. 39 and 58 showed an extensive cross reactivity at high concentration of normal colon nuclear matrix. The antigens were determined to be a heterogeneous group of proteins with a major antigen of molecular weight of 140,000 for antibody No. 54 subclone 54-c-5-6 and two major antigens of molecular weight for 105,000 and 116,000 for antibody No. 39 subclone 39-d-11-12. Immunohistochemical localization of the antigens by the horseradish peroxidase bridge method demonstrated their presence in the nuclei.
