Equilibrium binding characteristics of monoclonal antibodies recognizing melanoma cell surface antigens.

The equilibrium binding characteristics of a panel of six monoclonal antibodies (MAb) recognizing melanoma cell surface antigens (125 kdal cell surface melanoma associated glycoprotein antigen, 125kD-MAA; high molecular weight melanoma associated antigen, HMW-MAA; and a non-protein melanoma associated antigen, NP-MAA) were investigated using the cell lines SK-MEL-2, SK-MEL-5, and M21. The MAbs displayed equilibrium association constant (K) values ranging from 10(7) M-1 to 10(10) M-1 and maximum MAb binding values (Qmax) from 2 x 10(4) to 2 x 10(6) MAb molecules bound per cell. High trypsin concentrations were shown to have deleterious effects on Qmax values obtained for antibodies recognizing the 125kD-MAA, and even low trypsin concentrations affected Qmax values obtained for MAbs recognizing the HMW-MAA (although a complete linear recovery of HMW-MAA antigen was observed in 20-25 hours). Significant changes in Qmax were also noted for different cell passages. Except for MAb 43.2, little variation in K was observed when different cell lines were used. Linear Scatchard plots were obtained for all MAbs except 43.2 in which case concave down behavior was observed suggesting the existence of positive cooperativity between the binding sites of this MAb.
