    Abstract:
    Here we have used hybrid mouse IgG1-2a and IgG2a-2b mAb to demonstrate that the interaction between the human high-affinity IgG FcR (huFc gamma RI) and monomeric mouse IgG2a mAb requires only one of the mIgG2a H chains. Recently, we reported a method for the generation and isolation of hybrid hybridomas, producing hybrid mouse mAb. Using this method we have obtained hybrid mouse (m)IgG1-2a and mIgG2a-2b mAb reacting with either horseradish peroxidase or human IgA1 (monospecific mAb) or with both Ag (bispecific mAb). Using protein A- or Ag-affinity chromatography purified hybrid mAb, we demonstrate here the binding of monomeric hybrid mIgG1-2a and mIgG2a-2b mAb to huFc gamma R on U937 cells, whereas no binding could be observed to the K562 cell line. Monomeric mouse IgG2a mAb and human IgG1 were found to be capable of inhibiting the binding of these hybrid mIgG1-2a and mIgG2a-2b mAb in a manner similar to the way they inhibited binding of monomeric mIgG2a mAb to U937 cells; this is in contrast to our findings for mIgG1 and mIgG2b mAb which did not inhibit the binding of both hybrid mAb. In addition, the binding of the hybrid mIgG1-2a and mIgG2a-2b mAb could be blocked by mAb TB-3, which is known to block huFc gamma RI-mediated binding by the "Kurlander phenomenon" and not by the anti-Fc gamma RII mAb CIKM5 and IV.3. These results indicate that both types of monomeric hybrid mAb are bound by the huFc gamma RI. Scatchard plots of mIgG2a, hybrid mIgG1-2a, and mIgG2a-2b mAb binding revealed similar numbers of binding sites and similar affinity constants of huFc gamma RI for these mAb (0.9 to 3.6 x 10(8) M-1). These results suggest that huFc gamma RI, present on the U937 cell line, are capable of binding monomeric hybrid mIgG1-2a and mIgG2a-2b mAb, and that this interaction requires only one of the mIgG2a H chains.
