Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is being increasingly used to directly measure protein interactions in nearly physiological environments. Here, protocols for atomic force microscopy (AFM) for visualization of antigen-antibody complexes are presented. The technique is used to demonstrate complexes formed by rheumatoid arthritis patient antibodies with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) isolated from P. mirabilis (O3) strain S1959 and a synthetic antigen (LPS epitope of 6 N-alpha-(D-galacturonoyl)-L-lysine residues).
原子力显微镜（AFM）越来越多地用于在近乎生理的环境中直接测量蛋白质相互作用。本文介绍了用于可视化抗原-抗体复合物的原子力显微镜（AFM）实验方案。该技术用于展示类风湿性关节炎患者抗体与从奇异变形杆菌（O3）菌株S1959分离的脂多糖（LPS）以及一种合成抗原（6个N-α-（D-半乳糖醛酰基）-L-赖氨酸残基的LPS表位）形成的复合物。
