Abstract
A human B-lymphoblastoid cell line which is identified as L612. The L612 cell line is an Epstein-Barr virus transformed cell line which secretes a human monoclonal antibody (L612) which is reactive with glycoconjugates having an epitope of terminal NeuAc .alpha.2-3 Galactose residue such as GM3 and GM4 present on a variety of human tumor tissues. The L612 antibody is useful in treating patients with the epitope containing tumors and is also useful in raising anti-id antibodies for use as surrogate antigens and diagnostic reagents.
