Isoelectric focusing of the human TSH receptor A subunit.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The water soluble A subunit of the human TSH receptor has been shown to have an isoelectric point of 5. As both TSH and TSH receptor antibodies have isoelectric points in the region of 8-10, charge-charge interactions must be of major importance in the binding of hormone or antibody to the TSH receptor A subunit.

Characterization of Nucleoprotein Extracted from Human Influenza A Virus Cultured in Two Different Cell Lines
Background and Aims: Influenza virus nucleoprotein (NP) has the capacity to be used as subunit vaccine, but little is known about the impact of different cultures on its structure. In the present study we aimed to evaluate and compare the Isoelectric focusing (IEF) property of extracted viral nucleoproteins derived from Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line and embryonated chicken eggs (EC...
متن کاملIsoelectric Focusing and PCR-RFLP Joined Techniques for Alpha1-antitrypsin Deficiency Detection
53 persons suspected to alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency detection (AATD) were investigated for ZZ, MZ, ZS, SS, and MS alleles analysis by serum protein electrophoresis (SPE), measurement of trypsin inhibiting capacity (TIC), isoelectric focusing (IEF), polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and IEF/PCR-RFLP techniques. The result clearly shows by using SPE and TIC techniques only 35.85 % and 50.08% of ...
متن کاملEvaluation of a sensitive, in vitro bioassay for chicken thyroid stimulating hormone using FRTL-5 cells, a rat thyroid cell line.
An in vitro bioassay for mammalian thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) based on TSH-induced cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) production in FRTL-5 cells, a rat thyroid cell line, was used to measure chicken TSH. The addition of chicken pituitary homogenate equivalent to > or = 25% of a chicken pituitary gland to cultured FRTL-5 cells increased cAMP within these cells in a dose-dependent...
متن کاملImmunochemical characterization of two thyroid-stimulating hormone beta-subunit epitopes.
The epitopes of human thyroid-stimulating hormone (hTSH) recognized by two murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), designated MAb 279 and MAb 299, have been characterized. These MAbs are highly specific for the beta-subunit of TSH. The epitope recognized by MAb 279 appears to be completely conserved between bovine and human TSH and partially conserved in the porcine species. The TSH beta-subunit e...
متن کاملAffinity-labelling of the thyrotropin receptor
Thyrotropin (TSH) has been coupled to the photoactive heterobifunctional reagent N-hydroxysuccinimidyl 4-azidobenzoate (HSAB) and the properties of the product (HSAB-TSH) investigated. Preparations of HSAB-TSH containing two molecules of HSAB per molecule of TSH were used in most experiments and these preparations retained about 40% of the original receptor-binding activity of the TSH. HSAB-TSH...
