Abstract
A hybridoma capable of producing a monoclonal antibody specific to a sialic acid containing glycolipid carrying N-acetylneuraminic acid residue having alpha 2.fwdarw.3 linkage is herein disclosed. The hybridoma can be generated by fusing (i) B cells or lymphocytes obtained by immunizing an animal with a sialic acid containing glycolipid carrying N-acetylneuraminic acid residue having alpha 2.fwdarw.3 linkage and (ii) myeloma cells. The monoclonal antibody produced by the hybridoma can be used for purifying gangliosides, for treating patients suffering from melanoma and for diagnosing sera.
