Chimeric Use Statement:This chimeric human antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG2b format, for improved compatibility with existing reagents, assays and techniques.
Specificity Statement:184.1 was shown to react specifically with a common OspA epitope shared by a homologous protein of lower molecular weight (Jiang et al, 1990). Based on N-terminal sequencing and reactivity of 184.1 against truncated versions of OspA, it was concluded that 184.1 recognises an N-terminal epitope of OspA. This was corroborated by a crystal structure of the OspA-184.1 Fab structure (Li et al, 1997), which showed that 184.1 binds a well-ordered beta sheet arrangement near the N-terminus.
Application Notes:184.1 was used in Western blots and ELISA to determine specificity against B. burgdorferi major surface proteins (Jiang et al, 1990).
