Molecular cloning of a novel member of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily homologous to the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor.

Journal article

The CMRF35 monoclonal antibody recognizes a cell membrane antigen present on the surface of monocytes, neutrophils, a proportion of peripheral blood T and B lymphocytes and lymphocytic cell lines. Initial studies with CMRF35 suggested an unusual pattern of serological reactivity which did not correspond to any of the known leukocyte differentiation antigen clusters. We describe here the cloning and sequencing of a cDNA encoding the CMRF35 antigen by means of expression in COS cells and immuno...
