Monoclonal antibodies to factor VIIIC

摘要

Hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies specific for polypeptide fragments derived from human Factor VIIIC are provided. Class I hybridomas produce monoclonal antibodies reactive with a 80/77 kd doublet fragment or with both the 80/77 kd doublet and a 240 kd polypeptide. Class III hybridomas produce monoclonal antibodies reactive with the 240 kd polypeptide as well as a 92.5 kd fragment and its precursors. Class III antibodies show additional reactivity with a 40 kd thrombin digestion product. The monoclonal antibodies are useful for the separation of Factor VIIIC and its constituent polypeptides, as well as for the immunoassay of Factor VIIIC in biological samples.
