Abstract excerpt
The epitopes defined by three human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) (Tr3B6, TrCG10, TrBH12) against HLA-B27 have been mapped by flow cytometry. For this purpose we used murine transfected cells expressing at their surface hybrid antigens between HLA-B7 and -B27 and, in addition, Epstein-Barr virus cell lines expressing the six HLA-B27 alleles B*2701 to B*2706. The results indicated that the mAbs are domain specific....
