C4 functional activity and antigenic levels were determined in H-2-congenic mouse strains. In strains with the H-2w7 haplotype, the C4 hemolytic activity per unit of residual Ss antigenic activity, after depletion of the nonfunctional Slp-positive molecules was 25-33% that found with other H-2 haplotypes. This reduced hemolytic efficiency was not the result of either a more labile C4 molecule or of the presence of inhibitors. Moreover, other strains with comparable antigenic concentrations of Ss (C4) and Slp has three- to fourfold higher levels of C4 hemolytic activity. Based on these data and previously reported structural differences between C4 molecules from the H-2w7 haplotype compared with other standard H-2 haplotypes, the reduced hemolytic efficiency of this molecule is probably secondary to alterations in the structure of its alpha-chain.
在H-2同源基因小鼠品系中测定了C4功能活性和抗原水平。在具有H-2w7单倍型的品系中,去除无功能的Slp阳性分子后,每单位残余Ss抗原活性的C4溶血活性是其他H-2单倍型的25%-33%。这种溶血效率降低并非更不稳定的C4分子或存在抑制剂所致。此外,具有相当抗原浓度的Ss(C4)和Slp的其他品系,其C4溶血活性水平高三到四倍。基于这些数据以及先前报道的与其他标准H-2单倍型相比,来自H-2w7单倍型的C4分子之间的结构差异,该分子溶血效率降低可能是其α链结构改变的继发结果。
