In addition to h2F5 (Table 2), m2F5 (recombinant mouse 2F5 IgG antibody) (11) was used as a neutralization control for IgG+ mAbs and had the following IC50 values (averaged from two experiments): 92UG037.1=0.96, B.MN.3=0.52, SF162.LS=8.11, B.6536.3=18.6, and B.BG1168.1=9.81. Similarly, V3-1.4 (a mouse 2F5 IgM mAb) (12) was used a neutralization control for the IgM+ mAbs and had the following IC50 values: 92UG037.1=0.25, B.MN.3=0.13, SF162.LS=2.35, B.6536.3=5.52, and B.BG1168.1=3.69.
Quantitative ELISAs to measure relative reactivities of purified mAbs to plate-bound SP62 peptide (encoding the nominal 2F5-specific MPER epitope), NIH-3T3 cytoplasmic and nuclear antigens, Cardiolipin (CL), and histones; criteria for relative positivity are described in Fig S6 and as previously described (12).
cDNAs from cloned hybridoma lines were amplified using a combination of either leader peptide-specific forward primers in the 2F5 KI expression cassette or degenerate forward HC or LC-specific forward primers (34), and reverse C region-specific degenerate primers.
PCR products were sequenced in both orientations, KI 2F5 VH and VL regions were analyzed for mutations using L-ALIGN software and endogenous LC usage was determined using the Ig-BLAST algorithm. Mutations in 2F5 VH and VL nucleotide sequences are represented for corresponding protein sequences as mutation type: R=replacement, S=substitution, N=Nonsense and mutation location; FRW1, FRW2, FRW3, FRW4=Framework Regions 1,2,3,4, respectively, CDR1, CDR2, CDR3=Complementarity Determining Regions 1,2, 3, respectively; information in brackets designate corresponding aa residue, number, and replacement (if applicable), with number nomenclature based on published 2F5 VH and VL aa sequences (9,52), and those in endogenous LCs, are annotated relative to Ig blast germline sequences.
