Characterization of a monoclonal antibody (RJ5) against the immunodominant 41-kD antigen of Candida albicans
A 41-kD component of Candida albicans was identified to be the major antigen radioimmunoprecipitated by antibodies with increased titers in the sera of patients with invasive candidiasis. A mouse monoclonal antibody (RJ5) was generated which, by immunoblotting, showed positive reactivity to the immunoprecipitated 41-kD component. By two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting, MoAb RJ5 was shown to react with different isoforms of the 41-kD component with pI values from 6.1 to 6.9. Furthermore, MoAb RJ5 showed positive reactivity to cytoplasmic antigens of C. albicans by frozen section and immunoperoxidase staining. By SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting, MoAb RJ5 showed no cross-reactivity to antigens of Candida tropicalis and Candida parapsilosis. The epitope of the 41-kD molecule recognized by MoAb RJ5 was susceptible to treatment of proteinase K at concentrations of greater than or equal to 5 micrograms/ml, and was relatively resistant to periodate oxidation with concentration of NaIO4 up to 20 mM. This MoAb may be useful in the purification and characterization of the immunodominant 41-kD antigen of C. albicans, and as a probe in the detection of Candida antigens in the sera of patients with invasive candidiasis.
