A human thymocyte antigen defined by a hybrid myeloma monoclonal antibody

Abstract

Spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse that had been immunized with human thymocytes were fused with the myeloma line P3‐NS1/1Ag 4.1. One of the resulting hybrid clones (NA1/34) secreted an antibody that was highly specific for human thymocytes. Eighty‐five % of thymocytes expressed the antigen designated HTA1. There were an estimated 15 × 10 4 molecules of HTA1 per cell, and it is therefore a major surface molecule. The expression of this antigen on thymocytes appears to be reciprocal to HLA, as recognized by another monoclonal antibody W6/32. Immunoprecipitated material from [125 I]‐labeled thymocyte membranes was analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate which disclosed a single component of 45 000 molecular weight.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
