Title:
FUSION PROTEIN, NUCLEIC ACID, VECTOR, CELL, METHOD FOR MEASURING LAB, AND KIT FOR USE IN MEASUREMENT OF LAB
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/190679
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a fusion protein produced by linking full-length apolipoprotein B (ApoB) or a partial fragment thereof to a protein capable of binding specifically to lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor (LOX-1). An example of the protein capable of binding specifically to LOX-1 is an antibody against LOX-1. The antibody may have the form of a functional fragment of the antibody. Also provided are: a method for measuring LAB using the fusion protein as an LAB reference standard; and a kit for use in the measurement of LAB, which contains the fusion protein.
