Dot-blot assays and their use as a direct antigen-binding method to screen monoclonal antibodies to 1,4-β-and 1,3-β-glucan synthases
Résumé
A rapid method has been developed to assay β-glucan synthases spotted on a nitrocellulose sheet. The sensitivity of this method allows screening of hybridoma-making monoclonal antibodies in a direct antigen-binding assay by measurement of the activity of the enzymes retained by the antibodies previously fixed on nitrocellulose.
