Abstract
The present invention relates to a novel endogenous compound 2-amino-3-[2-(&agr;-mannopyranosyl)indole-3-yl]propionic acid; to a method for testing a biological function by quantitating 2-amino-3-[2-(&agr;-mannopyranosyl)indole-3-yl]propionic acid in a collected biological sample and determining the biological function based on the quantitated values; to an antibody specifically reactive with 2-amino-3-[2-(&agr;-mannopyranosyl)indole-3-yl]propionic acid; to a hybridoma that produces the antibody; to a method for immunologically quantitating 2-amino-3-[2-(&agr;-mannopyranosyl)indole-3-yl]propionic acid in a sample by using the antibody; and to a process for producing a 2-amino-3-[2-(&agr;-mannopyranosyl)indole-3-yl]propionic acid derivative.
