An EBV-based vector allowing a high level of LTRHIV-directed expression in human cells.

We have developed a vector that allows high and transactivable expression of inserted genes. The vector contains a transcription unit in which the LTR from HIV flanks a multicloning site. The plasmid is based on the EBV p205 plasmid, which allows stable replication in human cells. The ability of the vector to express an exogenous DNA in human cells has been tested using the firefly luciferase gene.

Characterization and cellular localization by monoclonal antibodies of the 60 kDa mannose specific lectin of human promyelocytic cells, HL60.

Myelomonocytic lineage cells express an M(r) 60,000 mannose specific lectin, MR60 (Pimpaneau et al. (1991), Carbohydr Res 213: 95-108). Under non-reducing conditions, this protein migrates as a 120,000 protein. MR60 does not contain any N-glycan moiety cleavable by the action of N-glycanase. MR60 induces a sugar selective aggregation of beads coated with glycosylated albumin: beads bearing alpha-D-mannosyl residues are aggregated while beads bearing alpha-D-glucosyl residues are not. A monoclonal antibody Lec101B, specific for MR60, recognizes a single M(r) 60,000 protein by Western blotting. This monoclonal antibody does not label the cell surface of cells expressing MR60, but decorates intracellular vesicles upon permeabilization of these cells.
