Affinity of Serum Natural Antibodies against Peptidoglycan Bacterial Cell Component with Adjuvant Activity

We studied affinity of natural antibodies of human serum against glucosaminylmuramyl dipeptide (GMDP), the epitope peptidoglycan bacterial cell wall component which carries adjuvant activity. Antibodies against GMDP were isolated from the blood sera of healthy donors using thermal extraction of antibodies from specific ligand on plastic. Determination of the dissociation constant (K(d)) showed equal K(d) in the serum and affinity-purified anti-GMDP-antibodies, i.e. extraction by this method led to the isolation of all subpopulations of antibodies in spite of their affinity. K(d) of serum, affinity-purified and monoclonal anti-GMDP-antibodies proved of low value - 10(-6) M, and according to this index anti-GMDP-antibodies may be classified between anti-protein and anti-carbohydrate antibodies.
