  Figure.1: FACS analysis of BOSC23 cells using LT-3D2 antibody. BOSC23 cells were transiently transfected with anexpression vector encoding either PSA (red curve) or anirrelevant protein (Control transfectant: black curve). Binding of LT-3D2 was detected with a PE-conjugated secondary antibody. A positive signal was obtained only with PSA trans-fected cells.

• Background: Prostate specific antigen (PSA) belongs to the kallikrein gene family. It is a single-chain glycoprotein with a molecular mass of about 33 kD which is produced by prostate epithelial cells. It is secreted in the seminal plasma and is responsible for liquefaction of the seminal coagulum (1,2). PSA is present in small quantities in the serum of healthy males, and is often elevated in the presence of prostate cancer and in other prostate disorders. It is one of the most useful tumour markers because of its tissue specificity. It is thus widely used for screening, diagnosis, and monitoring patients with prostate cancer (3).
• Synonyms: Prostate-specific antigen, Semenogelase, Gamma-seminoprotein, P-30 antigen
• Note: SDS-PAGE analysis of LT-3D2: The antibody was purified by protein G affinity chromatography from cell culture supernatants and verified by SDS-Page (Figure.2).
