Abstract: The present invention relates to monoclonal antibodies that bind to the extracellular domain of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), hybridoma cell lines producing the antibodies, and methods of using such antibodies for diagnosis and treatment of cancer. In particular, thirty-five monoclonal antibodies reactive with PSMA expressed on the cell surface are exemplified. Additionally, the present invention relates to a novel protein variant (PSM?) of PSMA detected by a number of the antibodies of the invention. The hydrolase activity of PSMA and PSM? allows the use of an immunoenzymatic assay for their detection.

Abstract: A rat ganglioside GM1-specific ?1?2fucosyltransferase is disclosed. Nucleotide sequences of a rat ganglioside GM1-specific ?1?2fucosyltransferase, amino acid sequences of its encoded protein (including peptide or polypeptide), and derivatives thereof are described. Also described are fragments (and derivatives and analogs thereof) which comprise a domain of rat ganglioside GM1-specific ?1?2fucosyltransferase with catalytic activity. Methods of production of rat ganglioside GM1-specific ?1?2fucosyltransferase and derivatives and analogs thereof (e.g. by recombinant means) are provided. Methods of inhibiting the function of rat ganglioside GM1-specific ?1?2fucosyltransferase (e.g. by means of antisense RNA) are provided. Methods of commercial scale use of the rat ganglioside GM1-specific ?1?2fucosyltransferase in the production of fucosyl-saccharide compositions are described. Applications of these compositions, e.g. as additives for human nutritive compositions or immunotherapeutics for cancer, are disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and materials for the detection and quantitation 8-OH-Ade in biological specimens. Specifically, the present invention is directed to a group of highly specific monoclonal antibodies reactive with the modified nucleoside structure 8-OH-Ade, and to various immunoassays for 8-OH-Ade utilizing these monoclonal antibodies. The monoclonal antibodies of the present invention may be used in assays for diagnosing or monitoring the progression of certain types of cancer, in addition to a variety of other diseases associated with mutagenesis resulting from oxidative damage of DNA. Assays utilizing the monoclonal antibodies of the present invention may also be used to analyze or monitor toxicant exposure, such as from environmental sources. The monoclonal antibodies of the present invention were prepared with the immunogen 8-OH-adenosine coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), not to 8-OH-Ade directly.
