C56 is known to appear in the fluid phase when zymosan is incubated at 37 degrees C with certain acute phase 'reactor' sera. In the present study, C56 was detected bound to the zymosan particle prior to its appearance free in solution. In reactor sera C56 was formed and released with kinetics similar to that of the generation and decay of a C56-binding site formed when zymosan was incubated with normal serum. Bound and fluid phase C56 was detected only in reactor sera, and was generated only by agents known preferentially to activate the properdin pathway. Elution of C56 from zymosan in hypertonic salt solutions proved to be a convenient step in the partial purification of large amounts of this haemolytically active bimolecular complex.
已知当酵母聚糖在37℃与某些急性期“反应蛋白”血清一起孵育时,C56会出现在液相中。在本研究中,在溶液中游离的C56出现之前,就检测到C56与酵母聚糖颗粒结合。在反应蛋白血清中,C56的形成和释放动力学与酵母聚糖与正常血清孵育时形成的C56结合位点的产生和衰变相似。仅在反应蛋白血清中检测到结合的和液相的C56,并且仅由已知优先激活备解素途径的因子产生。在高渗盐溶液中从酵母聚糖上洗脱C56被证明是大量这种具有溶血活性的双分子复合物部分纯化中的一个方便步骤。
