The present study concerns the properties for binding of human plasma and extracellular matrix proteins and the relationship between M3 and M23 molecules. Here, it is demonstrated that M23 protein shows a multiple binding to fibrinogen (FG), fibronec

This work describes the cloning and sequencing of genes encoding fibronectin-binding proteins from Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus strain VTU211. A gene encoding a cell-wall protein FNZ was amplified and sequenced. In the same bacterial s

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have been produced by immunizing BALB C mice with whole M+ bacteria in incomplete Freund adjuvant and the resulting mAbs for M3 protein have been selected by an indirect immuno-fluorescent technique using formaldehyde-fix

Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus is an important cause of infectious diseases in horses and rarely humans. Little is known about the virulence factors or protective antigens of S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus. In the present study, I designed ori

Intraduodenal administration of nattokinase (NK) at a dose of 80 mg/kg, resulted in the degradation of fibrinogen in plasma suggesting transport of NK across the intestinal tract in normal rats. The action of NK on the cleavage of fibrinogen in the p

The emm gene typing of GAS (group A streptococcus) strains Sv and Su and the molecular structure of the vir regulon were decided. An emm(-like) gene from the chromosomal DNA of GAS strain Sv was amplified with forward and reverse primers, which were

We previously showed that M3 protein bound both fibrinogen and human serum albumin. Here, I report that M3 protein also has affinity for human immunoglobulin G. In contrast, M3 protein did not show affinity for polyclonal immunoglobulin G from other

Complement-mediated immune complex (IC) clearance was examined in the sera from regular hemodialysis patients, who accumulated excess factor D in the circulation. Both complement activities for the inhibition of insoluble IC formation and the solubil

We have previously demonstrated that some mAbs prepared against mouse complement receptor type 1 (CR1) bind a 150,000 Mr protein in addition to the 190,000 Mr CR1 protein. We now identify the 150,000 Mr murine protein as complement receptor type 2 (C
