| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on the primary structure of heavy and light chains of monoclonal antibody against leukotriene C4, a key lipid mediator in chronic inflammation, we prepared a recombinant single-chain antibody comprising variable regions of these two chains and expressed it in Pichia pastoris. The affinity and recovery of the recombinant antibody was dramatically increased as compared with the antibody expressed in E. coli. The anti-LTC4 single-chain antibody as well as the original monoclonal antibody suppressed the increase in expression of mRNA for COL1A1 and COL1A2 that was induced by stimulation with LTC4 and LTD4 in fibroblasts prepared from the lung of mice. Furthermore, we exhaustively prepared mutants of the anti-LTC4 single-chain antibody based on the results of X-ray crystallography analysis of the Fab fragment of the original monoclonal antibody, and identified amino acids which determined the LT binding specificity.
