Wall-associated protein antigens of Streptococcus mutans.
When heat-killed whole organisms of Streptococcus mutans strain Ingbritt (serotype c) were injected into rabbits, antibodies to at least 12 antigens were detectable by crossed immunoelectrophoresis. In contrast, when rabbits were immunized with organisms which had been subjected to extraction with the detergent sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), antibodies to only two protein antigens were found. T...
متن کاملAntibody specificity and antigen characterization of rat monoclonal antibodies against Streptococcus mutans cell wall-associated protein antigens.
Monoclonal antibodies to Streptococcus mutans OMZ175 (serotype f) cell wall-associated antigens (wall-extracted antigens [WEA]) were derived from the fusion of Lou C plasmocytoma rat cells (IR 983 F) and spleen cells from Wistar R inbred rats immunized with WEA. Four cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies directed against a component of S. mutans WEA have been established. All four monoclon...
متن کاملCell wall-associated protein antigens of Streptococcus salivarius: purification, properties, and function in adherence.
Three cell wall-associated protein antigens (antigens b, c, and d) were isolated from mutanolysin-solubilized cell walls of Streptococcus salivarius HB and purified to apparent homogeneity by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration, and immunoadsorption chromatography. Antigens b and c were also isolated from culture supernatants. Antigen b consisted of more than 80% protei...
متن کاملBinding of Todd-Hewitt broth antigens by Streptococcus mutans.
Streptococcus mutans 10449, grown in chemically defined culture medium, was tested for its ability to bind 3H-labeled Todd-Hewitt broth components (greater than 12,000 Mr). Maximum adsorption of radioactivity occurred within 5 min at room temperature, and cell-bound material was not completely removed by extended washing with buffer. Heat-killed, arsenate-inhibited, and viable bacteria bound si...
متن کاملCross-reactivity of Streptococcus mutans antigens and human heart tissue.
Rocket and two-dimensional immunoelectrophoreses were used to demonstrate that antisera from rabbits immunized with Streptococcus mutans strain B13 cross-reacted with human heart tissue. Absorption of the anti-S. mutans serum with S. mutans whole cells removed all reactivity to heart tissue, but did not remove the reactivity of an added antibody marker to its corresponding antigen. The anti-S. ...
