Anti-pectinase [B1]

Absolute Antibody

Anti-pectinase [B1]

7

This antibody binds to pectinases from various pathogenic fungi from such groups as ascomycetes, basidiomycetes, and oomycete.

B1 scFV antibody was shown to inhibit polygalacturonase (PG) activity in a number of pathogenic species of fungi and thus, it is a highly promising agent in the research on the methods of plant fungal diseases prevention (Manatunga et al., 2005). Furthermore, this antibody was also able to inhibit maceration caused by infection of plant tissue by necrotrophic fungi (Manatunga et al., 2005).

Fungal

Spleen mRNA from mice immunized with extracellular proteins from Rhizoctonia solani was used to construct a cDNA library from which antipectinase ScFv antibodies were isolated using phage display techniques (Manatunga et al., 2005).
