Serologic relatedness between Thy-1.2 and actin revealed by monoclonal antibody. 1983

S Dales, and R S Fujinami, and M B Oldstone

Monoclonal antibodies with affinity for Thy-1.2 on thymocytes also can bind to actin within marsupial, murine, and human cells. A similar cross-reactivity between Thy-1.1 and vimentin was revealed by Dulbecco and co-workers employing monoclonals. A computer-assisted analysis of the amino acid composition provided suggestive evidence for the occurrence of sequence homology between Thy-1.1 or Thy-1.2, actin, and vimentin that likely accounts for the serologic relatedness detected by hybridoma antibodies.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007152 Immunologic Capping An energy dependent process following the crosslinking of B CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS by multivalent ligands (bivalent anti-antibodies, LECTINS or ANTIGENS), on the B-cell surface. The crosslinked ligand-antigen receptor complexes collect in patches which flow to and aggregate at one pole of the cell to form a large mass - the cap. The caps may then be endocytosed or shed into the environment. Capping, Immunologic,Immunological Capping,Capping, Immunological
D007381 Intermediate Filament Proteins Filaments 7-11 nm in diameter found in the cytoplasm of all cells. Many specific proteins belong to this group, e.g., desmin, vimentin, prekeratin, decamin, skeletin, neurofilin, neurofilament protein, and glial fibrillary acid protein.

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.

D000199 Actins Filamentous proteins that are the main constituent of the thin filaments of muscle fibers. The filaments (known also as filamentous or F-actin) can be dissociated into their globular subunits; each subunit is composed of a single polypeptide 375 amino acids long. This is known as globular or G-actin. In conjunction with MYOSINS, actin is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of muscle.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
