Murine Monoclonal Antibodies against the Antimicrobial Peptide Oreoch-2 from Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
Keywords:
ascitic fluid, cell fusion, ELISA, hybridomaAbstract
Classic hybridoma technology has developed monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against a wide variety of antigens with several applications in biotechnology. In this work, murine mAb secreting hybridomas were generated for specific recognition of antimicrobial peptide Oreoch-2, isolated from tilapia and with demonstrated antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi. BALB/c mice were immunized with Oreoch-2 conjugated to bovine albumin. Cell fusion was performed between lymphocytes isolated from spleen of mouse with highest antibody serum titers and P3/x63.Ag8.653 myeloma cells. Three hybridomas with stable secretion of anti-P22 mAb were obtained, which did not show cross-reactivity with Oreoch-1 related peptide. The mAbs will be used in the study of the action mechanisms of antimicrobial peptide Oreoch-2 and to establish analytical tools for its detection and quantification in pharmaceutical formulations.
