Preparation and Biochemical Characteristics of a New IgG-Type Monoclonal Antibody against K Subgroup Avian Leukosis Virus.

ABSTRACT: This study focused on preparing a new IgG-type monoclonal antibody (MAb) against subgroup K avian leukosis virus (ALV-K) and identifying its biochemical characteristics. A specific gene fragment of ALV-K was amplified by polymerase chain reaction and expressed in E. coli. The purified expressed products were inoculated into BALB/c mice to prepare antibody-secreting spleen lymphocytes, and hybridoma cells were obtained after cell fusion of spleen lymphocytes and myeloma cells. A new hybridoma cell line named 30B9, which stably secreted IgG2b-antibody against ALV-K, was screened and contained 98 chromosomes. The MAb secreted by the 30B9 cells could recognize the ALV-K strain but not the ALV-A/B/J strains in an indirect immunofluorescence assay. Seventeen overlapping truncated ALV-K gp
