Abstract
A hemagglutinating monoclonal antibody has been obtained from a mouse/mouse hybridoma after immunisation with the leb-active oligosaccharide, lacto-N-difucohexaose I, coupled to edestin. The antibody agglutinated human red cells regardless of Lewis phenotype. Blood group O cells were strongly, agglutinated, and progressively weaker agglutination was observed with A2, B and A2B cells. Blood group A1 and A1B cells were not agglutinated.
By examining the binding of the antibody to glycolipids and oligosaccharides it was shown that the Leb and Y (Ley)-haptens bind to a similar extent. Full binding activity was dependent on the presence of, both fucosyl residues.
