cDNA clones encoding IgE-binding factors from a rat-mouse T-cell hybridoma
cDNA clones encoding rodent IgE-binding factors (IgE-BF) were isolated from cDNA libraries of a rat--mouse T hybridoma that secretes IgE-suppressive factor (IgE-SF) upon incubation with rat IgE. COS7 cells transfected with two of the cDNAs expressed IgE-BF, which selectively potentiate an in vitro I...

Zusammenfassung: | cDNA clones encoding rodent IgE-binding factors (IgE-BF) were isolated from cDNA libraries of a rat--mouse T hybridoma that secretes IgE-suppressive factor (IgE-SF) upon incubation with rat IgE. COS7 cells transfected with two of the cDNAs expressed IgE-BF, which selectively potentiate an in vitro IgE response. IgE-BF expressed in COS7 cells are glycoproteins of ≈ 60 and ≈ 11 kDa. DNA sequence analysis of an IgE-BF cDNA revealed a 556-amino acid (62 kDa) protein coding region. The results suggest that IgE-potentiating and IgE-suppressive factors share common precursor polypeptides and that the 11-kDa IgE-BF is derived from a 60-kDa precursor. |
