مستخلص: Abstract Objective: We established a new monoclonal antibody (2C9) that reacted with prostate tissue. The immunohistochemical reactivity of this antibody is similar to anti-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). Herein, we report the antigenic determinant of 2C9 antibody. Methods: The reactivity of the antibody was characterized by immunohistochemical staining and the antigen target was characterized by amino acid sequencing after immuno-affinity purification from an LNCaP cell lysate and cloning of a cDNA using a mammalian expression cDNA cloning system. Results: The amino acid and nucleotide sequences for the antigen molecule recognized with 2C9 monoclonal antibody demonstrated identity with PSMA. Conclusion: The target molecule of the 2C9 monoclonal antibody is PSMA, pointing to future diagnostic and therapeutic applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
