Research Abstract |
Cleavage-site directed antibodies, specific to new termini of a polypeptide generated by limited proteolysis, have been used for in situ analysis of proteolytic reaction. Such antibodies can be obtained by immunizing animals with terminus-mimicking synthetic peptide as an immunogenic hapten. Recently, novel substrates for caspases were successfully discovered in apoptotic cells using cleavage-site directed antibodies. We have been investigating antigen-binding specificity for these antibodies by means of peptide libraries. Polyclonal cleavage-site directed antibodies raised in rabbits showed fuzzy binding profiles for second to the C-terminal residue, although the antibodies strictly bound a peptide when Asp was located in its C terminus. However, the antibodies were less specific to the internal region farther away from the C terminus. Thus, we prepared monoclonal antibodies for the C-terminal region of a caspase-catalyzed polypeptide, and re-examined their antigen-binding properties. Some monoclonal antibodies were specific for C-terminal two residues, suggesting that a set of hundreds of such antibodies may be used for C-terminal analysis of a protein. For example, immunoblot analysis of electorophoretically separated proteins enable us to categorize them by C-terminal two residues. We can show in this study cleavage-site directed antibodies are possibly utilized for a proteomic tool in the future generation.
