Conventional rabbit antibodies and mouse monoclonal antibodies were raised to alpha-L-fucosidase purified from human placenta. Four monoclonal antibodies were studied, of which only one (A) was able to immunoprecipitate the fucosidase activity completely. Two antibodies (B and C) precipitated 65% and one (D) 35% of the activity. The enzyme precipitated by the monoclonal antibodies remained fully active, whereas the enzyme precipitated by conventional antibodies was partly inactivated. As shown by the method of successive immunoprecipitations, the monoclonal antibodies B and C recognized the same set of placental fucosidase molecules, and D a subset thereof. The purified fucosidase also yielded two components after gel electrophoresis in nondenaturing conditions, and the slower component corresponded to the set recognized by antibodies B and C. The fucosidase extracted from different tissues and serum was studied by immunoprecipitation. In all cases, the enzyme was completely precipitated by monoclonal antibody A. Two patterns were found with B, C and D: either part of the activity was precipitated by these antibodies (leucocytes, placenta, brain, liver, spleen, thymus) or B, C and D failed to precipitate any of the enzyme (serum, heart, kidney, testes).
