We have established 13 hybridoma cell lines which secrete mouse IgG1 monoclonal antibodies (McAbs) to human growth hormone (hGH). Binding affinity and binding specificity of McAbs were analyzed by competitive radioimmunoassay. Among these McAbs, CL. B1 showed a high affinity of 9.8 x 10(8) l/mol, and all McAbs so far tested showed very weak cross-reactivity or none at all with human prolactin (hPRL) and human chorionic somatomammotropin (hCS; human placental lactogen). Analysis of binding sites of McAbs using hGH variant and fragments in both ELISA and RIA demonstrated that McAbs could be classified into two groups. All the McAbs obtained in this study bound to plasmin-digested fragment S2 (hGH 1-134 and 141-191) and fragment alpha 3 (hGH 1-134 and 147-191). However, five (such as 1D2) out of 13 McAbs bound to fragment F1 (hGH 1-134) and others (such as CL. B1) did not. The McAb CL. B1 in the latter group showed low affinity with 20 K hGH (residue 32-46 deleted in native 22 K hGH) in contrast to high affinity with hGH (22 K). This suggests that the former McAbs recognize an epitope located at the N-terminal two-third part of hGH. In contrast, the McAbs of the latter group are likely to recognize three-dimensional structure of native 22 K hGH.

Monoclonal Antibodies which Preferentially Bind to 22K Human Growth Hormone Rather than Its 20k Variant.
