Serum HLA typing.

Abstract

This paper establishes that HLA antigens can be detected in serum by lymphocytotoxicity inhibition. A score system is described which enables the degree of cytotoxicity inhibition to be quantitated. The following HLA antigens have been detected: A1, A2, A3, A11, Aw24, B5, B7, B8, B27, Bw35 and B40. It has not been possible to detect HLA-B12.

Purification and characterization of a novel glutathione transferase from Ochrobactrum anthropi.

Glutathione transferase was purified from Ochrobactrum anthropi and its N-terminal sequence was determined to be MKLYYKVGACSLAPHIILSEAGLPY. The apparent molecular mass of the protein (24 kDa) was determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis. The amino acid sequence obtained showed similarities with known bacterial glutathione transferases in the range of 72-64%. Immunoblotting experiments performed with antisera raised against glutathione transferase from O. anthropi did not show cross-reactivity with two bacterial glutathione transferases belonging to Serratia marcescens and Proteus mirabilis.
