Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object of the present invention is to provide a monoclonal antibody which is useful for treating or diagnosing a disease relating to system ASC amino acid transporter 2 (hereinafter, referred to as “ASCT2”) or a method using the antibody. The present invention provides a monoclonal antibody which specifically recognizes a native three-dimensional structure of an extracellular region of ASCT2 and binds to the extracellular region, or an antibody fragment thereof; a hybridoma which produces the antibody; a DNA which encodes the antibody; a vector which contains the DNA; a transformant obtainable by introducing the vector; a process for producing an antibody or an antibody fragment thereof using the hybridoma or the transformant; and a therapeutic agent using the antibody or the antibody fragment thereof, and a diagnostic agent using the antibody or the antibody fragment thereof.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A DNA encoding a monoclonal antibody or an antigen-binding fragment thereof, wherein said monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof specifically binds to a native three-dimensional structure of an extracellular region of human system ASC amino acid transporter 2 (ASCT2), and does not bind to mouse ASCT2. 2. The DNA of claim 1 , wherein said monoclonal antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof binds to at least the EL2 reg…
