Receptors on endothelial and epithelial cells often recognize molecules that are expressed by fungi, and only a limited number of these receptors have been identified to date. Here, we describe a method for identifying novel host cell receptors for fungi that uses intact organisms to precipitate biotin-labelled host cell membrane proteins, which are then detected by immunoblotting with an anti-biotin antibody. Presented here is the method to use for identification of membrane proteins that bind to C. albicans.
内皮细胞和上皮细胞上的受体通常能识别真菌表达的分子,但迄今为止,这些受体中只有少数被鉴定出来。在这里,我们描述了一种使用完整生物体沉淀生物素标记的宿主细胞膜蛋白的方法,然后用抗生物素抗体通过免疫印迹检测这些蛋白,从而鉴定真菌的新宿主细胞受体。本文介绍了一种用于鉴定与 C. albicans 结合的膜蛋白的方法。
