Topographical location of H-Y antigen on mouse spermatozoa by immunoelectronmicroscopy. 1973

G C Koo, and C W Stackpole, and E A Boyse, and U Hämmerling, and M P Lardis

H-Y (male) antigen was visually located on mouse sperm by electron microscopy, by use of the indirect hybrid antibody method and tobacco mosaic virus as the visual marker. Labeling was achieved by centrifugation of the sperm through a discontinuous gradient consisting of alternating layers of immune reagents and wash solutions. Treated sperm were examined topographically by preparation of platinum-carbon replicas. Antigen was located mainly on the acrosomal cap of the sperm head.

D008815 Mice, Inbred Strains Genetically identical individuals developed from brother and sister matings which have been carried out for twenty or more generations, or by parent x offspring matings carried out with certain restrictions. All animals within an inbred strain trace back to a common ancestor in the twentieth generation.

D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
D010984 Platinum A heavy, soft, whitish metal, resembling tin, with atomic number 78, atomic weight 195.084, symbol Pt. It is used in manufacturing equipment for laboratory and industrial use. It occurs as a black powder (platinum black) and as a spongy substance (spongy platinum) and may have been known in Pliny's time as "alutiae". Platinum Black
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.
