Summary

Utilizing phage display peptide libraries, we have identified and mapped the antigenic determinants recognized by mouse monoclonal antibodies (mAb) on two sets of immunologically important molecules, HLA class I and class II antigens. Anti-HLA class I mAb TP25.99 recognizes a conformational and a linear determinant on distinct regions of the HLA class I α3 domain. Anti-HLA class I mAb HO-4 recognizes a conformational determinant on the α2 domain of HLA-A2 and A28 allospecificities. Anti-HLA-DR1,-DR4,-DR6,-DR8,-DR9 mAb SM/549 recognizes a conformational determinant on the β chain of HLA class II antigens. These results indicate the versatility of phage display peptide libraries to characterize antigenic determinants recognized by anti-HLA mAb.
