We confirmed the findings of Ey and colleagues that mouse IgG is absorbed by protein A-Sepharose at pH 8.0. Also confirmed was their finding that IgG1 mainly elutes from such a column by means of a buffer with pH 6.0 and that the corresponding pH values for IgG2a and IgG2b were 4.5 and 3.5. We made the new finding that the bulk of IgG2a bearing allotypes a or j eluted already at pH 5, in contrast to IgG2a bearing allotype b. Another new finding was that IgG3 was mainly eluted at pH 4.5 regardless of the allotype. All four subclasses of IgG could thus be physically separated if the allotype was a or j (the only known exception is allotype b). Separation of IgG2a and IgG3 was achieved even when the allotype was b by using a pH gradient for elution. IgG2a came out at a slightly higher pH than IgG3. Mouse IgG antibodies against group A streptococcal polysaccharide belonged mostly to IgG3 and, to a lesser extent, to IgG2a and IgG2b.
