Abstract
Mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) showing distinct reactivity against the 60-kilodalton (kDa) antigen heat shock protein of Yersinia enterocolitica, designated cross-reacting protein antigen (CRPA), have previously been established. The reactivities of these MAbs (5C3 and 3C8) against mouse and human host cells were studied by Western blotting and flow cytometric analysis. The results indicated that epitopes on the bacterial 60-kDa heat shock protein are present on various molecules in mouse spleen cells and human B cells. An epitope recognized by MAb 5C3 was expressed on the mouse and human host cell surface, and an epitope recognized by MAb 3C8 was also expressed on the human host cell surface.
