Monoclonal antibodies specific for the bundle-forming pilus of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli.

Abstract

The bundle-forming pilus (BFP) produced by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is associated with the presence of a large EPEC adherence factor plasmid and the formation of localized adherence clusters on tissue culture cells. Three mouse monoclonal antibodies (ICA2, ICA3, and ICA4) were produced against BFP purified from EPEC B171 (O111:NM). These monoclonal antibodies reacted in immunoblots with different epitopes of the 19.5-kDa bundlin subunit of BFP of heterologous EPEC. These reagents could serve as diagnostic tools for the identification of EPEC as well as for studying the role of BfpA in the interaction of EPEC with eukaryotic cells.
