MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY TO HUMAN GLICENTIN, HYBRIDOMA FOR PRODUCING SAID ANTIBODY AND ASSAY METHOD FOR HUMAN GLICENTIN USING SAID ANTIBODY

摘要

A monoclonal antibody to human glicentin having a recognition site in the C-terminal region of the positions from 51 to 69, especially from 51 to 62 in the amino acid sequence of human glicentin. The antibody is produced by a hybridoma 3D5A (FERM BP-5214) which is produced by cell fusion of antibody-producing cells immunized with human glicentin and myeloma cells. The antibody is of high sensitivity to human glicentin and advatageously used for a determination or assay for human glicentin by a sandwich method in combination with an antibody to human glicentin having a recognition site different from that of the above mentioned antibody, preferably in the N-terminal region.
