240E-W2 cell line doesn't carry an endogenous heavy chain gene.
Cell Fusion
Fusions were performed using conventional methodology. 1.5−3×108 lymphocytes from an immunized rabbit
and the fusion partner cells were mixed at a ratio of 2:1 with PEG 4000 at (Sigma P7181) 37° C. in serum-free
medium. The cells were transferred into 96-well cell culture plates at approximately 1×105 lymphocytes per well
in 1640 RPMI medium with 15% FBS (or FCS), incubated in a CO2 incubator. After 48 hr HAT medium (Sigma
H0262) was added. Hybridoma colonies were ready for screening in 3-5 weeks. Medium was changed 2-3
times before screening by removing old medium and add fresh medium. Supernatants were tested for the
presence of antibody, specific for the immunogen, by ELISA. Western blot analysis was used as a secondary
screening assay. The hybridomas were sub-cloned by limit dilution. The fusion partner 240E-W2 at 2×104 cells
per well was used as feeder cells.
