MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY AGAINST SUBTILISIN-LIKE PROPROTEIN CONVERTASE PACE4 AND UTILIZATION THEREOF

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an antibody specifically recognizing PACE4 belonging to a subtilisin-like proprotein convertase family, and to provide uses of the same, such as an immunological reagent given by utilizing specific binding properties of the antigen to the PACE4 and a immunological detection method.;SOLUTION: This monoclonal antibody acts against a peptide having a specific amino acid sequence derived from a human as an epitope part, wherein the monoclonal antibody reacts with the PACE4 among the subtilisin-like proprotein convertases but does not react with furin, PC1, PC2, PC4, PC6, and PC8.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
