摘要
神经生长抑制因子（ＦＩＦ）是一种特异存在于哺乳动物脑中的金鹰硫蛋白 （ＭＴ），又称ＭＴ－Ⅲ，具有特异神经细胞生长抑制效应．ＭＴ－Ⅲ与ＭＴ有７０％的序列 同源性，但ＭＴ却无此功能．在患ＡＤ症病人的大脑中，ＧＩＦ和ｍＲＮＡ的含量均显著降 低．为了进一步研究，ＭＴ－Ⅲ的结构与功能及与ＡＤ症的关系，制图示ＧＩＦ的单克隆抗 体，用ＥＬＩＳＡ方法研究了ＧＩＦ，α－结构域和β－结构域，Ｎ－末端六肽和Ｎ－末端＋肽分别 与ＧＩＦ的单克隆抗体的相互作用，并对单克隆抗体的抗原决定簇进行了分析．结果显示 了ＧＩＦ的抗原决定簇与其一定的空间构象有密切的关系．
Neuronal growth inhibitory factor (GIF), a brain-specific metallothionein protein (Metallothionein- Ⅲ), can inhibit the growth of neuronal cell. Though exhibiting the 70% same sequence, GIF distinguishes from othet MT isoforms by inhibiting neuronal survival in vitro. It was reported that MT- Ⅲ and its mRNA were greatly reduced in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. For further research, the monoclonal antibody of GIF was prepared and the interaction between GIF, a-domain. β-domain, peptides and McAb of GIF were studied with ELISA. The epitope of the MT- Ⅲ was studied. The results show that the epitope of GIF is closely related to GIF's conformation.
