[Immunochemical characteristics of the ovine polymeric haptoglobin HpC].

It was found that haptoglobins of camel, cattle, horse, pig, rat, guinea pig and man form upon immunoelectrophoresis precipitation arcs with antibodies against polymeric sheep haptoglobin C, corresponding to alpha 2-globulins. The immunocrossreactivity of haptoglobins of man and various animal species towards antibody to sheep haptoglobin (100, 88.0, 75.2, 72.1, 56.3, 51.0, 41.3 and 28.0% for haptoglobin of sheep, camel, pig, cattle, man, rat, guinea pig and horse, respectively) was determined. The intensity of crossreactions between sheep haptoglobin and the proteins under study towards antibody to haptoglobin C reflects the similarity of their primary structure and, consequently, the immune homology of their molecules. Using quantitative titration, the antigenic valency values for human (6), sheep (5), cattle (4) and horse (3) haptoglobins were determined.

[Preparation of peptide maps of sheep fetus haptoglobin using immobilized trypsin].

A comparison of peptide maps of sheep foetus haptoglobin (Hp) phenotypes revealed a significant difference in 6 peptides. The map of multicomponent Hp2 shows the presence of a group of neutral peptides, which was absent in the case of a single-component Hp1. This difference is probably due to the presence of the alpha-subunit in Hp2.

[Haptoglobin study of sheep during the development process].

The development of haptoglobin blood system was studied in the sheeps during intrauterine development and early postnatal period. The haptoglobin content was shown to decrease with the foetus age, two peaks of its reliable increase having been, however, noted -- on the 55th and 105th days of development. After the birth the haptoglobin concentration in blood is relatively low, increases gradually and attains by the 8th month of life that in adult animals. In the blood serum of 45--120 days old foetuses two phenotypes of fetal haptoglobin were found; the adult haptoglobin is present only beginning from the 1st month of life.
