Recombinant Mouse Anti-N. meningitidis PorA (P1.2) Antibody (MN16C13F4) (CAT#: PABW-092)

Figure 1 Binding of anti-rNspA and control MAbs to live encapsulated N. meningitidis serogroup B strains BZ198, 8047, and M986 as determined by indirect-fluorescence flow cytometry.

The anti-NspA MAbs include AL4, AL5, AL11, and AL12. The control MAbs include a murine MAb with an irrelevant specificity (VIG10), an anticapsular-specific murine MAb (SEAM 12), and, for strains 8047 and M986, an N. meningitidis subtype MAb anti-PorA P1.2 (Rijksinstituut Voor Volksgezondheid en Mileu, Bilthoven, The Netherlands). A subtyping anti-PorA MAb was not available for strain BZ198.

Figure 2 The SDS-PAGE-separated proteins of strain 15501 (known to express both PorA and PorB) were transferred to nitrocellulose (lanes 1 and 2).

Both lanes were cut at the arrows. The left half of lane 1 was incubated with a mAb specific for PorA P1.2. The right half of lane 1 was incubated with MBL, as was the left half of lane 2. The right half of lane 2 was incubated with a mAb specific for PorB 2a. MBL bound to the same band as the PorB mAb, indicating that PorB but not PorA bound MBL.
