Methods Using BAC 5 mcAb as a selected target, the 3 rounds of biopanning to a 12 mer random peptide library (RPL) presented by M13 phages were carried out. The positive M13 phage clones were chosen and confirmed with sandwich ELISA for antibody capture and competitive assay. The exogenous DNA fragments in the positive/negative M13 phages were sequenced to deduce and compare the order of the amino acids of exogenous peptides among the phage clones. Results 77% (35/45) of the phages eluted from the 3rd round of biopnning could be captured by BAC 5 mcAb. The 3 kinds of the peptides were displayed by M13 phages from the 8 positive clones identified with competitive assay. The same character of '-P-V-'structure existed near N-terminus of the 3 different peptides, i.e. -H-Q-S-H-Y-P-Y-P-V-V-S-L- (4/8) -Q-N-Q-A-W-F-S-Q-P-V-R-M- (3/8) and T-Q-A-Y-K-G-F-P-V-L-P-S- (1/8) in comparison with the peptide ' -N-H-Q-S-T-F-W-Q-K-W-T-A-' displayed by M13 phages from the negative clones (6/6). Conclusion BAC 5 mcAb can recognize the 3 kinds of the peptides with-P-V-structure near N-terminus. These peptides mimic the structure of the epitope on the surface of NPC cells recognized by BAC 5 mcAb.展开更多
