Abstract
The present invention comprises novel recombinant DNA compounds which encode monoclonal antibody KS1/4 and chimeric derivatives of monoclonal antibody KS1/4. Eukaryotic expression vectors have been constructed that comprise novel KS1/4-encoding DNA and drive expression of KS1/4 when transformed into an appropriate host cell. The novel expression vectors can be used to create modified and chimeric derivatives of KS1/4. The recombinant-produced KS1/4, KS1/4 derivatives and KS1/4 chimeras are useful for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of disease states including adenocarcinoma.
