A glycoprotein antigen with an apparent mw of 45 kD was observed to be predominant in the circulating immune complexes isolated from patients of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis as well as in the immune complexes prepared in vitro. Further characterisation of 45 kD antigen with trypsin showed
A strategy is developed in this study for identifying sialylated glycoprotein markers in human cancer serum. This method consists of three steps: lectin affinity selection, a liquid separation and characterization of the glycoprotein markers using mass spectrometry. In this work, we use three
Turkey adenovirus 3 (TAdV-3) is the causative agent of an immune-mediated disease in turkeys, haemorrhagic enteritis, through targeting B lymphocytes. In the present study, we investigated the role of sialic acid in TAdV-3 entry and characterized the structural components of TAdV-3 receptor(s) on
Mineralization in UMR 106-01 osteoblastic cultures occurs within extracellular biomineralization foci (BMF) within 12 h after addition of beta-glycerol phosphate to cells at 64 h after plating. BMF are identified by their enrichment with an 85-kDa glycoprotein reactive with Maackia amurensis lectin.
The molecular integrity of monoclonal antibodies (MCAB) produced by murine hybridoma cell line TB/C3 was studied in batch and continuous-flow cultures. In batch culture, one band of MCAB was detected initially by Western blotting of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gels run under
Sapovirus, a member of the Caliciviridae family, is an important cause of acute gastroenteritis in humans and pigs. Currently, the porcine sapovirus (PSaV) Cowden strain remains the only cultivable member of the Sapovirus genus. While some caliciviruses are known to utilize carbohydrate receptors
Feline calicivirus (FCV) is a major causative agent of respiratory disease in cats. It is also one of the few cultivatable members of the family Caliciviridae. It has recently been reported that FCV binding is in part due to interaction with junction adhesion molecule-A. This report describes the
Mouse monoclonal immunoglobulin G2b (IgG2b) antibodies are known to contain two forms of the heavy chain that are different in susceptibility to the protease attack. In the present study, by use of an affinity column containing sialic acid-binding lectins from Maackia amurensis seeds, a mouse
