Immunoblotting
of human cancer cell lines pretyped by RT-PCR for CT10/MAGE-C2
mRNA expression with mAb LX-CT10.5 (NP-40 detergent lysates, chemiluminescence
detection). Positive reaction of mAb LX-CT10.5 with a protein
of an apparent molecular weight of 49 kDa (lane 1) in lysates
of CT10/MAGE-C2 mRNA-positive melanoma cell lines SK-MEL-37
(lane 2) and SK-MEL-55 (lane 3); no reactivity was seen with the
CT10/MAGE-C2 mRNA-negative melanoma cell line SK-MEL-24
(lane 4); the proteins detected by mAb LX-CT10.5 co-migrate with
the 49 kDa E. coli-derived recombinant CT10/MAGE-C2 protein
(arrow, lane 5). |
