Characterization of mycobacterial species specificity of 14 separate epitopes which reacted with monoclonal antibodies to the 65,000 molecular weight protein molecule ofMycobacterium leprae

Year: 1986

Type: article

Abstract: This study examined the number of diffe rent epitopes recognized by 23 monoclonal antibod ies known to recognize the 65K dalton protein of the leprosy bacillus, and the mycobacterial species specificity of those 14 monoclonal antibodies shown to recognize diffe rent epitopes.
