Immunogen | The original antibody was generated by immunizing BALB/c BYJ mice with streptococcal M type 5 membranes followed by a second, boosting dose of M type 5 streptococcal membranes. |
Application Notes | This antibody reacts with human heart cells and whole streptococci (group A, M type 5), as shown in an ELISA, and human heart cells, human sarcolemma, and group A streptococcal membranes, as shown in a WB (Cunnigham et al., 1984; PMID: 6384047). This antibody reacts with the heavy chain of skeletal muscle myosin. Specifically, it reacts with light meromyosin fragments, as shown in WB and competitive inhibition assays (Cunningham et al., 1986; PMID: 3510006). This antibody labels the cytoplasm of epidermal cells and epidermal appendages in normal and psoriatic skin, as shown by immunofluorescent staining (Swerlick et al., 1986; PMID: 3525693). |
