Abstract
We generated two novel mouse anti-human GL50 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) using classical hybridoma technology. The two MAbs (clones 2B4 and 4D11) were IgG1 (κ) and IgG2a (κ), respectively, and bound specifically to human GL50. Epitope competition assay showed that 2B4 and 4D11 bind to the same ep...

Abstract
We cloned 576 new HIV antibodies from four unrelated individuals. All four individuals produced expanded clones of potent broadly neutralizing CD4-binding-site antibodies that mimic binding to CD4. Despite extensive hypermutation, the new antibodies shared a consensus sequence of 68 immunoglobulin H...

Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies (mabs) are powerful tools for the quantification, detection, and targeting of specific molecules. Allergen-specific mabs are important for the quantification of major allergens in allergen preparations used for allergen-specific immunotherapy and allergy diagnosis. Indeed, prog...
