Purification of two allergens from Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus using monoclonal antibodies
Abstract
Fractionation of soluble extracts from the house dust mite Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (DP) by SDS-PAGE and crossed immunoelectrophoresis (CIE) revealed at least fifty distinct protein components. Western blotting and crossed radioimmunoelectrophoresis (CRIE) indicated that fewer than one quarter of these components were allergens as determined by their ability to bind IgE from allergic individuals. Following immunization with a crude extract, two monoclonal antibodies were raised against distinct components which exhibited IgE binding capacities in Western blot and CRIE. Affinity chromatography using these monoclonal antibodies yielded components which elicited positive skin test reactions in patients allergic to DP.
