  • Patent number: 10150961
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for producing a monoclonal antibody that binds to an epitope for the glycan binding site of a glycoprotein. According to the present disclosure, a monoclonal antibody that recognizes the glycan binding site of a glycoprotein as an epitope can be produced in a relatively simple and economic manner, and a monoclonal antibody having high sensitivity and specificity for the glycan binding site of a glycoprotein can be produced. The monoclonal antibody produced according to the present disclosure can be effectively used as an agent for diagnosing or treating various diseases associated with a change in glycan structure or glycan expression level.
