Leucine zipper motif는 여러 개의 주기적인 leucine 잔기로 구성되어 amphipathic alpha helix형태의 구조를 나타내며 소수성 결합에 의해 이량체를 형성한다. 이 leucine zipper motif를 single chain Fv 항체의 C-terminus에 도입하면 leucine zipper motif의 소수성 결합에 의해 amphipathic alpha helix의 이량체가 형성되면서 융합된 single chain Fv 항체의 이량체 (Dimer) 형성 또한 유도할 수 있다. 이량체 형태의 single chain Fv 항체는 2개의 항원 결합부위를 갖게 되므로 단량체 형태의(monomer) single chain Fv 항체에 비해 항원 결합력(Avidity)이 증가 될 것이다. 이 개념에 기초하여 이전 연구에서 제조된 단량체 형태인 닭 single chain Fv 항체인 8C3 ScFv 항체의 C-terminus에 leucine zipper motif를 도입하여 이량체 형태의 8C3 ScFv 항체를 개발하였다. 이량체 8C3 ScFv 항체는 가금류의 대표적인 기생충 질병인 coccidiosis를 유발하는 Eimerian sporozoite에 특이적으로 결합하는 기능을 나타내었다. 또한 이량체 8C3 ScFv 항체는 avidity 증가로 인하여 단량체에 비해 항원 결합력이 약 3배 증가됨을 확인할 수 있었으며 단백질 회수율 또한 2배 증가되는 부수적인 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

폐흡충 충란항원의 항원성을 평가하기 위하여 감염 후 10개월된 충체에서 유리된 충란의 수용성 항원을 제작하였다. 실험감염 개 페흠충증에서 특이 IgG, IgM 항체의 생성을 효소면역측정법으로 충체항원과 비교 관찰하였다. 또한 disc-PAGE로 충란항원의 구성 단백질을 관찰하였다. 1. 폐흡충 충란항원에 대한 특이 IgG 항체는 충체가 충란을 형성하는 감염 8주에 상승하기 시작하여 12주에 최대치에 이르고 이후 일정한 항체가를 유지한 반면, 특이 IgM 항체의 생성은 대단히 미약하였다. 2. 폐흡충 충체항원에 대한 특이 IgG 항체는 감염 2주에 상승하여 관찰기간인 13주까지 계속 상승하였다. 항체가도 충란항원보다 높았다. 충체항원에 대한 특이 IgM 항체는 감염 2주부터 나타나 8주까지는 일정량을 유지하나 이후 감소하기 시작하여 12주에는 감염전 상황으로 되돌아왔다. 3. 폐흡충 충란항원은 전기영동상에서 단백질 band 2개로 관찰되었으며 성충의 충체항원에서 관찰되는 10개의 단백질 band중 Band 1과 Band 2에 해당되는 단백질 band임을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 2개의 단백질로 구성된 폐흡충의 수용성 충란항원은 특이 IgG 및 특히 IgM 항체 생산을 유도하나 성충충체항원에 비하여 그 항원성이 대단히 미약하다고 판단하였다.

Epitope tagging is the process of fusing a set of amino acid residues that are recognized as an antigenic determinant to a protein of interest. Tagging a protein with an epitope facilitates various immunochemical analyses of the tagged protein with a specific monoclonal antibody. The monoclonal antibody H8 has subtype specificity for an epitope derived from the preS2 region of hepatitis B virus surface antigen. Previous studies on serial deletions of the preS2 region indicated that the preS2 epitope was located in amino acid residues 130~142. To test whether the amino acid sequence in this interval is sufficient to confer on proteins the antigenicity recognizable by the antibody H8, the set of amino acid residues in the interval was tagged to the amino terminal of ${\beta}$-galactosidase and to the carboxyl terminal of the truncated $p56^{lck}$ fragment. The tagged ${\beta}$-galactosidase, expressed in Escherichia coli, maintained the enzymatic activity and was immunoprecipitated efficiently with H8. The tagged $p56^{lck}$ fragment, synthesized in an in vitro translation system, was also immunoprecipitated specifically with H8. These results demonstrate that the amino acid sequence of the preS2 region can be used efficiently for the epitope tagging approach.

Trichnuris suis does not excrete eggs during larval stage as well as in particular adult stage, It is impossible to diagnose by use of fecal examination method in those periods. Therefore, serological diagnostic method can be very useful for those stages. In order to produce monoclonal antibody, specific somatic and secretory-excretory (SE) antigens of T. suis were identified and analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. Monoclonal antibody-producing hybridoma cells were cloned, which were made of popliteal lymph node of BALB/c mice immunized with a 45 kDa somatic antigen of T. suis. Five clones (1B9, 2C4, n2C5, 2D7 and 2D8) showing strong responses to T. suis antigens were selected and the isotype identified. All monoclonal antibodies were IgG1 isotype and the light chains were k chain. Established monoclonal antibodies reacted specifically to somatic and SE antigens of T. suis and did not cross-reacted to antigens of ascaris suum, trichuris vulpis, or Trichinella spiralis. The sensitivity of somatic and SE antigens against these monoclonal antibodies were significant (p<0.01) associated with those of positive and negative sera.

It is important to discriminate between tuberculosis and tuberculosis-like disease by Mycobacteria other than tuberculosis in the serodiagnosis of tuberculosis. But because common antigens share among Mycobacteria, their antigenicities to human are similar. Therefore degree of cross-reactivity of antibody in the sera of patients with tuberculosis between M. tuberculosis and Mycobacteria other than tuberculosis should be checked to increase the specificity in the serodiagnosis of tuberculosis. The activity levels of IgG antibody in the sera of 106 patients confirmed as active pulmonary tuberculosis and 30 normal healthy control person to the pressate extract antigen (TE, BE, AE, and FE antigen) from M. tuberculosis, M. bovis, M. avium, and M. fortuitum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the crossreactivity of IgG antibody with mycobacterial species was analysed. The results were as follows; 1. The activity level(O.D. at 492nm) of IgG to TE antigen in sera of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis was $0.228{\pm}0.167$ in minimal tuberculosis; moderately advanced, $0.556{\pm}0.616$; far advanced, $1.116{\pm}0.651$ and $0.315{\pm}0.245$ in miliary tuberculosis. 2. The activity level (O.D. at 492nm) of IgG to BE antigen in sera of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis was $0.190{\pm}0.162$ in minimal tuberculosis; moderately advanced, $0.337{\pm}0.361$; far advanced, $0.713[\pm}0.460$ and $0.204{\pm}0.162$ in miliary tuberculosis. 3. The activity level (O.D. at 492nm) of IgG to AE antigen in sera of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis was $0.165{\pm}0.114$ in minimal tuberculosis; moderately advanced, $0.392{\pm}0.494$; far advenced, $0.751{\pm}0.512$ and $0.233{\pm}0.191$ in miliary tuberculosis. 4. The activity level (O.D. at 492nm) of IgG to FE antigen in sera of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis was $0.280{\pm}0.227$ in minimal tuberculosis; moderately advanced, $0.460{\pm}0.564$ ; far advanced, $0.845{\pm}0.573$ and $0.257{\pm}0.103$ in miliary tuberculosis. 5. The activity level (O.D. at 492nm) of IgG in sera of healthy control person was $0.126{\pm}0.084$ to TE antigen. $0.105{\pm}0.041$ to BE antigen, $0.103{\pm}0.052$ to AE antigen, and $0.095{\pm}0.061$ to FE antigen. 6. Degree of correlation(r) in activity level of IgG between TE antigen and BE antigen was 0.905 ; between TE antigen and AE antigen, 0.760; between TE antigen and FE antigen, 0.790, and between AE antigen and FE antigen, 0.945. 7. As O.D. above 0.200 was determined positive for the serodiagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis, the sensitivity and specificity in ELISA using TE antigen were 80% and 87% respectively, whereas in the case of using BE antigen, 66% and 100%; in the case of using AE antigen, 62% and 100%, and in the case of using FE antigen, 72% and 93%, respecitively.

To examine the effects of vaccination against Babesia gibsoni(B gibsoni) infection in dogs, 15 normal mixed-breed dogs(5 months to 1 year old) were divided into 3 groups with 5 dogs in each group. One of them was selected as control group(group A) and other were selected as experimental groups(group B and C). The group B was vaccinated with antigen which were mixed 0.2% of formalin treated B gibsoni and sonicated one. The group C was inoculated Theileria sergenti as a non-specific antigen. The results obtained in this experiment were summarized as follows; 1. After first vaccination, antibody titers of group B and C were increased 5 times(1:200) than those of control group(1 : 40). The antibody titers of group C were increased more than that of group B after second vaccination. When challenged with the living protozoa(Babesia gibsoni), the antibody titers of C group were elevated higher than that of B group and maintained steadly. Those were not exceeded over 1 : 5,000 for 4 weeks in all 3 groups. 2. After challenge, the peak time of the parasitemia appeared nearly on the 15th day(12~18 days) in all groups. During this period, the rate of parasitized erythrocytes in control group was $55.0{\pm}5.4$‰. But that of group B and C were $41.3{\pm}38.8$‰ and $15.2{\pm}16.3$‰, respectively. 3. After challenge with B gibsoni, all of the values of PCV, Hb, RBC and total leukocytes counts were decreased in both of the experimental and the control. 4. In all groups, there were increased lymphocytes and monocytes after challenge with the protozoa.

장티푸스가 의심되는 51명의 환자 혈청내에서 Salmonella typhi의 균체항원에 대한 IgG, IgM과 IgA 항체률 효소면역측정법으로 측정하였다. 균체항원에 대한 IgG와 IgA 항체가는 세균이 분리되어 장티푸스로 확진된 환자에서 건강대조군보다 높았다. 반면 세균을 분리하지는 못하였지만 임상증상 등으로 장티프스를 의심하는 환자에서는 IgM항체가는 건강대조군보다 높았다. 균체항원에 대한 항체를 효소면역 측정법으로 측정하는 것이 Widal 검사보다 민감도가 높았다. 장티푸스를 진단하는데 균체항원을 부착시켜 효소면역측정법을 사용하는 것이 유용할 것이다.
