Sequence of an HLA-DR alpha-chain cDNA clone and intron-exon organization of the corresponding gene.
Janet S. Lee,John Trowsdale,P Travers,Janet Carey,Frank Grosveld,John R. Jenkins,Walter F. Bodmer +6 more
TL;DR: Analysis of the HLA-DR α-chain amino acid sequence shows a clear homology with HLA–ABC, β2-microglobulin and immunoglobulin domains, and a correlation between the protein domain structure and the genomic exon organization is revealed.
Preparation and characterization of monoclonal antibodies against placental alkaline phosphatase and other human trophoblast-associated determinants.
P Travers,Walter F. Bodmer +1 more
TL;DR: Four monoclonal antibodies prepared by immunizing BALB/c mice with purified human term placental plasma membranes have been found to recognize the placenta‐specific isozyme of alkaline phosphatase, and to cross‐react with the closely related testis form of this enzyme.

Serum marker potential of placental alkaline phosphatase-like activity in testicular germ cell tumours evaluated by H17E2 monoclonal antibody assay.
TL;DR: Results with monoclonal antibody ILEA assay suggest that measurement of PLAP levels will be useful in the management of patients with germ cell tumours, particularly seminoma.

An immunohistological study of testicular germ cell tumours using two different monoclonal antibodies against placental alkaline phosphatase
TL;DR: The immunohistological staining of testicular germ cell tumours was compared with that of a wide range of normal and malignant tissues and indicates that germ cell neoplasms generally express a form of placental alkaline phosphatase recognised by antibody H17E2.

Monoclonal antibody assay of serum placental alkaline phosphatase in the monitoring of testicular tumours.
A A Epenetos,A J Munro,D. F. Tucker,Walter M Gregory,W Duncan,R H MacDougall,M Faux,P Travers,Walter F. Bodmer +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that determination of PLAP levels using this sensitive immunoassay is an important new adjunct in the monitoring of the response to treatment in patients with seminoma.
