We first constructed theVe cDNA library (4.6×105 independent clones) and VκcDNA library (3.0×105 independent clones). Then, theVε and Vκ gene segments were amplified from both libraries by PCR respectively, and assembled into Fab fragment by SOE PCR. The phage library containing Fabs wasthus constructed. The diversity of Vε from this library wasanalyzed and proved. Fab clones with high specificity toTCS have been screened out.展开更多

We found that 2 and 3 mAbs utilized genes of the VHIV and VHIII families, respectively. The former 2 VH segments were in germline configuration. A common VH segment, with the best similarity of 90.1 % to the published VHIII germline genes, was utilized by 2 different rearranged genes encoding the V regions of other 3 mAbs. This strongly suggests that the common VH segment is a unmutated copy of an unidentified germline VHIII gene. All these polyreactive mAbs displayed a large NDN region (VH-D-JH junction). The entire H chain V regions of these polyreactive mAbs are unusually basic. The analysis of the charge properties of these mAbs as well as those of other poly- and mono- reactive mAbs from literatures prompts us to propose that the charged amino acids with a particular distribution along the H chain V region,especially the binding sites (CDRs), may be an important structural feature involved in antibody polyreactivity.展开更多

However the number of IgEproducing B cells and the amount of IgE, especially the specific IgE, are so low, it greatly impedes the study of the allergic-specifc antibody responses. Here we report the construction of a normal human IgE combinatorial library The repertoire of IgE VH genes and of K genes were separately amplified from normal human peripheral blood lymphocytes through RT-PCR, and were then constructed to form the phage surface display human Fab(IgEVH) library. A plant protein allergen, trichosanthin(TCS), was used to affinity-enrich and to screen the anti-TCS phage HuFab clones from the library. Human IgE(Fab) to TCS were detected.展开更多
