Sequence comparisons between the antigenic sites of sperm-whale myoglobin and the corresponding regions in rabbit myoglobin indicate that rabbits make antibodies to regions of the sperm-whale myoglobin molecule which are identical to the corresponding regions in rabbit myoglobin. Rabbit myoglobin did not precipitate with antisera to sperm-whale myoglobin. However, it exhibited an extensive cross-reaction as demonstrated by its ability to inhibit the precipitin reaction of sperm-whale myoglobin, and on an immunoadsorbent, bound a large amount of antibodies to sperm-whale myoglobin.
抹香鲸肌红蛋白抗原位点与兔肌红蛋白相应区域之间的序列比较表明,兔子会针对抹香鲸肌红蛋白分子中与兔肌红蛋白相应区域相同的区域产生抗体。兔肌红蛋白不能与抗抹香鲸肌红蛋白的抗血清发生沉淀反应。然而,它表现出广泛的交叉反应,如抑制抹香鲸肌红蛋白沉淀反应的能力所证明,并且在免疫吸附剂上能结合大量抗抹香鲸肌红蛋白的抗体。
