name:
Murine monoclonal glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD)65 antibodies recognize autoimmune-associated GAD epitope regions targeted in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and stiff-man syndrome.
description:
The identical sequence is found in mouse, rat and human GAD65. The sequence is from the reference cited: Ziegler et al. (1994) Diabetes Res 25: 47-64 [PMID: 7544254]. The epitope was deduced.
The binding of epitope-specific mAb M61/7E11 to GAD65 was displaced by 3 of 3 sera from nondiabetic patients with Stiff-man syndrome, indicating that the human sera recognized the epitope. Generation of mAb M61/7E11 is described in the reference cited: Ziegler et al. (1994) Diabetes Res 25: 47-64 [PMID: 7544254].
