The isolation and partial characterization of the serum lipoproteins and apolipoproteins of the rainbow trout. (1/3737)

1. VLD (very-low-density), LD (low-density) and HD (high-density) lipoproteins were isolated from the serum of trout (Salmo gairdneri Richardson). 2. Each lipoprotein class resembled that of the human in immunological reactivity, electrophoretic behaviour and appearance in the electron microscope. Trout LD lipoprotein, however, was of greater density than human LD lipoprotein. 3. The trout lipoproteins have lipid compositions which are similar to those of the corresponding human components, except for their high contents of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids. 4. HD and LD lipoproteins were immunologically non-identical, whereas LD lipoproteins possessed antigenic determinants in common with VLD lipoproteins. 5. VLD and HD lipoproteins each contained at least seven different apoproteins, whereas LD liprotein was composed largely of a single apoprotein which resembled human apolipoprotein B. 6. At least one, and possibly three, apoprotein of trout HD lipoprotein showed features which resemble human apoprotein A-1.7. The broad similarity between the trout and human lipoprotein systems suggests that both arose from common ancestral genes early in evolutionary history.  (+info)

Studies of the binding of different iron donors to human serum transferrin and isolation of iron-binding fragments from the N- and C-terminal regions of the protein. (2/3737)

1. Trypsin digestion of human serum transferrin partially saturated with iron(III)-nitrilotriacetate at pH 5.5 or pH 8.5 produces a carbohydrate-containing iron-binding fragment of mol.wt. 43000. 2. When iron(III) citrate, FeCl3, iron (III) ascorabate and (NH4)2SO4,FeSO4 are used as iron donors to saturate the protein partially, at pH8.5, proteolytic digestion yields a fragment of mol.wt. 36000 that lacks carbohydrate. 3. The two fragments differ in their antigenic structures, amino acid compositions and peptide 'maps'. 4. The fragment with mol.wt. 36000 was assigned to the N-terminal region of the protein and the other to the C-terminal region. 5. The distribution of iron in human serum transferrin partially saturated with various iron donors was examined by electrophoresis in urea/polyacrylamide gels and the two possible monoferric forms were unequivocally identified. 6. The site designated A on human serum transferrin [Harris (1977) Biochemistry 16, 560--564] was assigned to the C-terminal region of the protein and the B site to the N-terminal region. 7. The distribution of iron on transferrin in human plasma was determined.  (+info)

Purification of two dexamethasone-binding proteins from rat-liver cytosol. (5/3737)

Two dexamethasone-binding proteins have been purified from rat liver cytosol. The main purification steps are: precipitation by protamine sulphate, affinity chromatography on CH-Sepharose 4B to which 11-deoxycorticosterone is linked through a disulfide bond and DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Two binding components elute from the DEAE-cellulose column at 0.12 M and 0.2 M NaCl, respectively. By means of dodecylsulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis it was demonstrated that both components are composed predominantly of a single polypeptide with molecular weights of about 45 000 and 90 000. Antibodies to the two polypeptides have been elicited in rabbits. The antibodies to the 45 000-Mr polypeptide cross react with the 90 000-Mr component. Likewise the antibodies to the 90 000-Mr protein precipitate the 45 000-Mr polypeptide. Either of the two antibody preparations immunoprecipitates the major part (approximately 70%) of the dexamethasone-binding activity of the cytosol.  (+info)

Carbohydrate on human factor VIII/von Willebrand factor. Impairment of function by removal of specific galactose residues. (6/3737)

Human factor VIII/von Willebrand factor protein containing 120 +/- 12 nmol of sialic acid and 135 +/- 13 nmol of galactose/mg of protein was digested with neuraminidase. The affinity of native factor VIII/von Willebrand factor and its asialo form for the hepatic lectin that specifically binds asialoglycoproteins was assessed from in vitro binding experiments. Native factor VIII/von Willebrand factor exhibited negligible affinity while binding of the asialo derivative was comparable to that observed for asialo-alpha1-acid glycoprotein. Incubation of asialo-factor VIII/von Willebrand factor with Streptococcus pneumoniae beta-galactosidase removed only 62% of the galactose but abolished binding to the purified hepatic lectin. When the asialo derivative was incubated with purified beta-D-galactoside alpha2 leads to 6 sialyltransferase and CMP-[14C]NeuAc, only 61% of the galactose incorporated [14C]NeuAc. From the known specificites of these enzymes, it is concluded that galactose residues important in lectin binding are present in a terminal Gal/beta1 leads to 4GlcNAc sequence on asialo-factor VIII/von Willebrand factor. The relative ristocetin-induced platelet aggregating activity of native, asialo-, and agalacto-factor VIII/von Willebrand factor was 100:38:12, respectively, while procoagulant activity was 100:100:103.  (+info)

Immunological comparison of the proteins of chicken and rat liver ribosomes. (7/3737)

A comparison of the proteins of chicken and rat liver ribosomes using immunochemical techniques was undertaken. The procedures included quantitative precipitation, passive hemagglutination, and immunodiffusion on Ouchterlony plates. The results indicate that antisera specific for chicken or rat liver ribosomes recognize only about 20% of common determinants. While there are important reservations, the results suggest extensive differences in the proteins of rat and chicken liver ribosomes. Despite those differences, rat and chicken liver ribosomal proteins maintain some homologous sequences present in bacterial ribosomal proteins. An enriched antibody preparation against chicken 80 S ribosomes inhibited the poly(U)-directed synthesis of polyphenylalanine and the elongation factor G (EF-G)-catalyzed binding of [3H]GDP to Escherichia coli ribosomes. Thus, chicken liver ribosomes, like ribosomes from rat liver and yeast, must have proteins homologous with those of E. coli ribosomes.  (+info)

Homogeneous pyruvate kinase isolated from yeast by two different methods is indistinguishable from pyruvate kinase in cell-free extract. (8/3737)

In this report, we have compared homogeneous yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) pyruvate kinase to enzyme from cell-free extracts in several different ways: 1) isoelectric focusing of cell-free extracts indicates one peak of pyruvate kinase activity whose isoelectric point is the same as that of the pure enzyme; 2) antibody prepared to the pure enzyme produces a single, fused precipitin line against enzyme in the cell-free extract and pure enzyme; 3) immunoelectrophoresis of cell-free extract produces one precipitin arc which has the same mobility as that of the pure enzyme; and 4) immunoprecipitation of the pure enzyme from cell-free extract with subsequent solubilization in 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate and electrophoresis on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels produces a single protein band attributable to pyruvate kinase which co-migrates with the purified enzyme. Within the limits of the sensitivity of the methods employed, we conclude that the homogeneous pyruvate kinase prepared from yeast lysed either by Manton-Gaulin homogenization (Aust, A., Yun, S.-L., and Suelter, C. (1975) Methods Enzymol. 42, 176-182) or by toluolysis (Yun, S.-L., Aust, A.E., and Suelter, C.H. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 251, 124-128) is identical with pyruvate kinase in cell-free extract.  (+info)

Silver-staining of immunoprecipitates extends the sensitivity of the radial immunodiffusion assay by tenfold. This modification permits the quantification of apolipoproteins A-I, A-II, C, and E at levels of 0.2-1.0 mg/dl in plasma samples at a sensitivity threshold of 10 ng. The silver-enhanced radial immunodiffusion method is readily adapted from the standard method, simple and inexpensive to perform, and does not require costly instrumentation. These advantages make the modified RID assay an attractive alternative to other forms of immunoassay.
This lab activity is designed to study highly specific lock-key matching properties of antigen-antibody and how this highly specific interaction can be exploited as a tool for research and analysis. This study involves the use of an immunodiffusion technique in which antigen and antibody are allowed to diffuse in a solid agarose medium. When antigen and antibody meet, antigen-antibody complex is formed, which leads to precipitation. Antigen-antibody precipitate is formed in the zone where the concentration of the two matching pair reaches an optimal known as the zone of equivalence, which results in formation of a visible opaque precipitate region in agarose medium. Those regions of precipitation can be used for determination of concentration or titer of both antigen and antibody. The Antigen-Antibody Interaction kit is a hands-on study of both Ouchterlony Double Diffusion and Radial Immunodiffusion techniques. This kit also provides additional guidance materials for teaching other types of ...
Tumor antigens on the cell surface of thymic lymphoma cells from chemical- and virus-induced lymphomas of C57BL mice and virus-induced tumors of Wistar-Furth rats have been studied with the use of immunofluorescence on viable cells with rat, rabbit, and monkey antisera. In young mice given intrathymic injections of a murine leukemia virus, a new cell surface antigen can be detected as early as 2 to 4 days postinjection in some thymuses. Rat antisera to virus-induced rat thymic lymphoma cells gave a precipitin line in Ouchterlony double diffusion analysis when tested with virus isolated from plasma of tumor-bearing rats or from mouse lymphoma extracts. This reaction is due to the group-specific (internal) antigen of the murine leukemia viruses, since ether treatment of the virus preparations was required to obtain it. The results indicate that both radiation and certain chemicals may activate the same leukemia virus, which is endemic in this low leukemia strain.. ...
We investigated the effect of fibronectin on epithelial migration onto the stroma in cultured rabbit cornea. Rabbit plasma fibronectin was purified by affinity chromatography using gelatin-Sepharose 4B, and its purity was confirmed by SDS polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. Antibody against rabbit plasma fibronectin raised in guinea pigs formed a single precipitin line against rabbit plasma and purified rabbit plasma fibronectin by Ouchterlony double diffusion test. When rabbit cornea was cut into small blocks and cultured in TCM-199 medium alone, corneal epithelial cells began to migrate on the cut edge of the corneal stroma. The addition of purified rabbit plasma fibronectin to the culture medium significantly enhanced epithelial migration. The degree of enhancement depended on the amount of fibronectin added. When guinea pig IgG anti-rabbit plasma fibronectin was added, epithelial migration was significantly inhibited when compared with that in control cultured corneal blocks. The ...

Hyperactive secretion and pathogenic effects of interleukin (IL)-17 and IgA have been detected in different arthropathies. Recent evidence has revealed that TH17 cytokines regulate mucosal IgA secretion. However, it is unknown whether and how IL-17 mediates synovial IgA production. Here we aim to investigate the connection of synovial IL-17 with IgA production in the joint. In this study we included synovial fluids (SF) from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA; n = 66), spondyloarthritis (SpA; n = 18) and osteoarthritis (OA; n = 36). The levels of IL-17, IL-6, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, B-cell-activating factor of the TNF family (BAFF) and anti-lipopolyssacharide (LPS) immunoglobulin (Ig)A were investigated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Total IgA was measured by radial immunodiffusion assay. Synovial fluid-derived mononuclear cells (SFMC) were stimulated with bacterial antigens or SF-conditioned media, and cytokines and IgA were analyzed in the supernatants. IL-17, IL-6 and
i. Reaction of identity: Antigens in two wells are identical (Agl and Ag2). So the reaction with the antibody results in a precisely similar precipitin lines. The precipitin lines dont cross, but form a continuous line. Fusion of the two precipitin lines indicates that the antibody is reacting with epitopes commonly present on the two antigens. ii. Reaction of non-identity: Two non-identical antigens (Agl and Ag3) are in the antigen wells while the antibody well has antibodies to both the antigens. The two antigen-antibody precipitin lines formed differ from each other. Hence the two precipitin lines completely cross (intersect) each other. iii. Reaction of partial identity: The antigenic determinants in the antigens of two wells are partially shared (Agl and Agla). Hence the antibody reacts with both the antigens and forms lines that do not form a complete cross. The precipitin line crosses in only one direction. The extended precipitin line is referred to as a spur. The spur indicates that ...

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) is global disease affecting about one third of the worlds population with its attendant mortality and morbidity. Acute phase proteins have been used in monitoring the progression of infections but not in relation to PTB in this environment. The levels of total protein, albumin, α-2-macroglobulin, transferrin, and haptoglobulin were determined in 23 patients with PTB and 17- age / sex matched PTB-free controls using spectrophotometric and immunodiffusion methods respectively. The result showed that α-2-macroglobulin was significantly raised in PTB patients compared with controls ( ...
Alternative methods are being sought to measure the potency of influenza vaccines. Label-free technologies that do not require the use of hemagglutinin (HA)-specific antisera are particularly attractive as the preparation of antiserum delays availability of potency reagents. The objective of these experiments was to evaluate the use of a Corning Epic® label-free method to quantify functional influenza hemagglutinin in rHA preparations. The method was optimized to quantify recombinant HA (rHA) of B/Brisbane/60/2008 (B/BR/08). Fetuin was immobilized onto plates and the change in wavelength of refracted light measured using an Enspire (Perkin Elmer) instrument. The change in wavelength measured in response to addition of rHA of B/BR/08 was proportional to its concentration and was optimal in the presence of native rHA conformations. However, the assay was strain-dependent and did not correlate with HAU measured using turkey red blood cells. The Corning Epic® label-free method is suitable for quantifying

Summary The particulate forms of HBsAg were analysed for the presence of HBeAG on their surfaces. By immunodiffusion analysis, anti-HBe did not form precipitin bands with the purified forms of HBsAg and hyperimmune guinea pig antisera to these forms did not react with HBeAg. Lines of non-identity were observed between the HBeAg determinants (e1 and e2) and the Dane particles and filaments isolated from an HBeAg-positive serum. Finally, anti-HBe failed to precipitate the polymerase-positive subpopulation of Dane particles, indicating that anti-HBe has no direct role in virus neutralization.

In that case, the Get User Ids test assumes a service that returns a list (a sequence) of User Ids, and each User ID is extracted and written to the desired writable data source column. The exact number of user IDs can be unknown or variable. After the Get User IDs test executes and the Writable Data Source is populated with the values, the scenario proceeds to the remainder of the test suite and the subsequent tests (Test 1 and Test 2) can be parameterized with that writable data source (e.g., by selecting the appropriate data source then parameterizing fields vs. the appropriate columns in that data source). This means that the tests can iterate over it and use up all the IDs that have been written into it by Get User IDs. In other words, they will execute for every ID that is retrieved.. Another case where writable data sources are useful if the test that is generating the values retrieves the values one at a time, but iterates over a data source and stores the extracted values into a ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - A cohort study of the association between serum immunoglobulin G concentration and preweaning health, growth, and survival in Holstein calves. AU - Pithua, P.. AU - Aly, Sharif S. PY - 2013. Y1 - 2013. N2 - The association between serum IgG concentration and preweaning health performance in Holstein calves were evaluated in a prospective cohort study design framework. Post colostral blood samples were collected from 561 calves and serum IgG concentrations were quantitated using a single radial immunodiffusion assay. Preweaning treatments for diarrhea, pneumonia, omphalitis and frequency of antibiotic therapy plus calf death events were recorded until calves were weaned at approximately 60 d of age. Logistic regression modeling was used to evaluate the association between failure of passive transfer of immunity (FPT, serum IgG , 10g/L) and risk of diarrhea, pneumonia, omphalitis, frequency of antibiotic therapy and death. Calves with FPT were twice as likely to suffer from scours ...
The complex antigenic properties of adenovirus-soluble complete and incomplete hemagglutinins were utilized to study the specificity of adenovirus anti-hemagglutinin sera in immunodiffusion and counterimmunoelectrophoresis tests. Pentons, penton dimers, fiber dimers, and/or dodecons of adenovirus types 2, 3, 5, 7a, 8, and 11 were extensively purified by ion-exchange and exclusion chromatographies. Components were determined to be purified proteins by immunologic, electron microscopic, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic criteria. Specific antigenic components were identified by immunoelectrophoresis and by various biologic characteristics. Rabbit antisera prepared against these hemagglutinating components were type-specific in standard serologic, Ouchterlony immunodiffusion, immunoelectrophoretic, and counterimmunoelectrophoretic tests. Counterimmunoelectrophoresis was particularly well suited to a rapid identification and typing of adenovirus isolates for diagnostic purposes.. ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - An immunologic study of the apoproteins of rat lung surfactant. AU - Katyal, S. L.. AU - Singh, Gurmukh. PY - 1979/1/1. Y1 - 1979/1/1. N2 - An immunologic analysis of lung surfactant-associated proteins, designed to detect surfactant-specific protein(s), was performed. Rat lung surfactant was isolated and purified and was used to raise antisera in rabbits. The antisera were found to react with both rat serum and lung surfactant. Antibodies against rat serum proteins were removed from the IgG fraction of the antiserum by means of affinity chromatography using rat serum linked to Sepharose 4B. The specificity of the purified IgG thus prepared (surfactant-specific IgG) was checked by immunodiffusion analysis and by immunoperoxidase and immunofluorescence staining of sections of lungs obtained from adult, newborn, and fetal rats. Immunodiffusion analysis revealed a single precipitin line against rat lung surfactant, but no reactivity with rat serum proteins. After immunoperoxidase ...
Antisera were raised against rods of 17 named Arthrobacter and Aureobacterium strains. Antigenic relationships between these strains, other soil bacteria and new Arthrobacter isolates from several soils were studied, using agglutination, immunodiffusion, immunofluorescence and ELISA techniques. Many of the named Arthrobacter species had common antigens, and there were also common antigens amongst named Arthrobacter strains and many fresh Arthrobacter isolates. Agglutination, ELISA and immunofluorescence tests revealed greater antigenic differences between the named strains than did immunodiffusion tests. Serological similarities between the 17 named strains and the fresh Arthrobacter isolates were calculated using S coefficients. The occurrence of named strains in serogroups based on immunodiffusion data supported the taxonomic scheme for arthrobacters in Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology. The distribution of soil isolates in serogroups resembled that in groups based on numerical analysis
Background: Trichomoniasis caused by Trichomonas vaginalis, is one of the most commonsexually transmitted parasites in the world, accounting for approximately 170 millioninfections annually. Although the factor behinds such incidence is still not clear,local and systemic host immune response is involved.Objectives: Accordingly, the present research was planned to determine the level ofimmunoglobulins (IgA, IgG and IgM) in sera and vaginal washes of women infectedwith T. vaginalis.Materials and Methods: Fifteen women infected with T. vaginalis (culture confirmed) and15 healthy females were inspected for total level of IgA, IgG and IgM in their seraand vaginal washes by means of single radial immunodiffusion.Results: The total level of IgA, IgG and IgM in serum and vaginal wash of patients and controlsshowed no significant difference, with the exception of IgG, which showed asignificant increased mean in the sera of patients.Conclusion: Humoral immune response is important in controlling T. ...
Evidence exists that C is involved in the coagulation process (Zimmerman et al., J. Exp. Med., No. 6, 1971). It has been reported that C3 (β1C/β1A) is significantly depressed in most patients with DIC (Tomar et al., Thromb. Diath. Haemorrh., 3: 27, 1972). In the present study C3 and C4 were quantitated by single radial immunodiffusion in the plasma of patients suffering mostly from severe septic and traumatic conditions with and without shock. Examinations including detailed coagulation studies were performed on 30 selected patients and 14 showed characteristic signs of DIC. C3 was markedly diminished in 13, C4 in 9 of the 14 DIC patients. In patients with septicemia but without DIC, a larger variation of results was found. In this group, depressions of C3 were observed in 6, and of C4 in 3 of 10 cases and seemed to occur more frequently when the condition was complicated by shock.. ...
Twenty cats with FIP and twenty with FIV were studied. The objective of the present study was to establish the diagnostic value of these two tests in both diseases. Correlation between AGP and Albumin/Globulin ratio (A/G) and CD4/CD8 ratio were analyzed in both groups.. FIV was confirmed by serology and PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction). FIP was confirmed by histopathology (vasculitis and perivasculitis). In addition to the evaluation of the clinical signs blood chemistry, hematology and other complementary diagnostic methods. CD4/CD8 by flow cytometry and AGP test were performed in order to establish the diagnostic value of these two tests in both diseases. CD4/CD8 ratio was performed with: 8100-01 Sowthern Biotechnology, anti CD4 Vpg 34, Willett, Glasgow University, anti CD8, VPG9, Willett, Glasgow University and Fluorescent antimouse IgG Southern Biotechnology, Becton and Dickinson Facs Scan Citometer.

A glycoprotein with an apparent 340,000 mol wt (gp 340K) was isolated from rat kidney saline-soluble extract by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DE 52 ion-exchange cellulose chromatography, concanavalin A affinity column, Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration, and discontinuous polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The relative purity of gp 340K was examined by double immunodiffusion analysis, disc PAGE, and immunoelectrophoresis. Injection of rabbit gp 340K antiserum into pregnant rats during the organogenetic period induced abnormal embryonic development, fetal growth retardation, and embryonic death. Antiserum against the immunocomplexes isolated by immobilized protein A also produced the same embryotoxic effects. The biologic effects of the antisera appeared to be dose dependent. Defects such as anophthalmia, hydrocephaly, exencephaly, cleft palate, cleft lip, and some cardiovascular anomalies were observed. The most frequently observed anomaly was anophthalmia. Immunofluorescent localization ...
Previous studies demonstrated the cross antigenicity between endothelial and epithelial basement membranes. In the present study we have isolated and characterized chemically and immunologically the antigenic components of basement membranes from the glomerulus, alveolus, and lens capsule. The basement membranes were solubilized by reduction and alkylation and antisera prepared in rabbits. On immunodiffusion two precipitin lines of identity form when antiserum to either reduced and alkylated glomerulus or lens-capsule basement membranes is reacted with both antigens. Reduced and alkylated alveolus basement membrane reacts similarly with both antisera. Upon fractionation of the basement membranes two antigenic components are obtained. One is ...
The reactivity of the antiserum is directed to the Fc and Fab subunits of both subclasses, IgG1 and IgG2. It includes a certain degree of reactivity with other immunoglobulins via the common Fab portion. In immunoelectrophoresis against goat serum a single characteristic precipitin line with a spur is usually obtained, representing primarily IgG2. If the IgG1 level in the sample approaches the concentration of IgG2, it may become visible as a second precipitin line. It does not react with any non-Ig protein in goat serum, as tested by immunoelectrophoresis and double radial immunodiffusion.

Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenases (EC 1.2.1.12 and 1.2.1.13) have been purified from the seed, root, etiolated, and green shoot of peas (Pisum sativum). These enzymes are tetramers of 140,000 daltons, with subunits of 35,000 daltons. The enzymes differ in isoelectric point. The seed enzyme has a pI of 5.1, and the root enzyme has a pI of 4.5. The cytoplasmic enzyme from etiolated shoots is slightly acidic with a pI of 5.7 to 6.1 and is found in two separable forms. The chloroplast enzyme (from green shoots) is most basic with a pI of 8.0.. In immunodiffusion experiments, the seed, root, and cytoplasmic enzymes of the etiolated shoot share antigenic homology, while the chloroplast enzyme does not cross react antigenically with the extra-chloroplast enzymes. The antiserum to the pea chloroplast enzyme did, however, cross react with glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase purified from the spinach chloroplast. Therefore, the chloroplast enzyme is significantly different from the ...
