Abstract

The expression of two different HLA class I genes was observed after transformation of LMTK⁻ cells. The corresponding class I molecules reacted differentially with monomorphic monoclonal antibodies (m.Ab). Absorption and elution studies of the human alloantibodies reacting with the transformed cells and cellular radioimmunoassay of these cells with polymorphic m.Ab resulted in the identification of HLA-A3 and CW3 molecules. These transformed cells were used to immunize C3H mice and induce the production of xenogeneic antisera, which, following absorption, showed polymorphic reactivity with human cells, suggesting that some of these sera could be used as typing reagents.
