Abstract excerpt
The Mig protein of Streptococcus dysgalactiae is a type III immunoglobulin G (IgG)-binding protein, expressing IgG- and alpha2-macroglobulin (alpha2-M)-binding receptors. This study showed that the Mig protein also displays binding activities to bovine immunoglobulin A (B-IgA). Biotin-labelled bovine serum IgA bound immobilized recombinant Mig and alpha2-M receptors derived from Mig, as well as the native Mig...
