Two monoclonal IgG antibodies E11 and G11, which react with parathyroid and kidney tubule cells, are in the present communication demonstrated to immunostain the surface of cytotrophoblast cells in human placenta. The G11 but not the E11 antibody has earlier been found to interfere with the sensing and gating of extracellular calcium in parathyroid cells. Microfluorometric measurement of the cytoplasmic calcium (Ca2+i) concentration was performed on suspended placental cells loaded with fura-2. The E11-positive placental cells displayed biphasic and parathyroid-like increases in Ca2+i in response to extracellular Ca2+. This increase was blocked by the G11 antibody and absent in the E11-negative placental cells. A sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was constructed in which the G11 and E11 antibodies were shown to react with the same molecule. This calcium sensor was isolated and found to consist of a single, glycosylated polypeptide of approximately 500 kDa.
