A 120 kDa antigen produced by juvenile female Litomosoides sigmodontis (Juv-p120) was isolated and purified. The amino acid composition of the molecule was determined. Juv-p120 was shown to be highly modified with N,N-dimethyl-aminoethanol (28.4 mol%). Treatment of Juv-p120 with potassium hydroxide (beta-elimination) or with sodium m-periodate leads to the destruction of epitopes recognized by antibodies immune affinity-purified with isolated Juv-p120. Juvenile L. sigmodontis were shown to release Juv-p120 into the pleural cavity of infected Mastomys coucha before the onset of patency.
从感染的雌性幼年巴西日圆线虫(Litomosoides sigmodontis)中分离并纯化出一种120 kDa的抗原(幼年p120)。测定了该分子的氨基酸组成。结果显示,幼年p120被N,N-二甲基氨基乙醇高度修饰(28.4摩尔%)。用氢氧化钾(β-消除法)或间高碘酸钠处理幼年p120会导致被用分离出的幼年p120免疫亲和纯化的抗体识别的表位遭到破坏。结果表明,在感染的多乳鼠(Mastomys coucha)开放期开始之前,幼年巴西日圆线虫会将幼年p120释放到其胸腔中。
