Autoantibodies to the Nuclear Sp100 Protein in Primary Biliary Cirrhosis and Associated Diseases: Epitope Specificity and Immunoglobulin Class Distribution
1 Oct 1992
Abstract excerpt
Sp100, a protein with a dot-like intranuclear localization in immunofluorescence microscopy, is a major target for patient autoantibodies in primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and occasionally in rheumatic disorders. The human Sp100 cDNA has recently been cloned, and the deduced amino acid sequence was found to contain sequence similarities with an MHC class I domain and several transacting regulatory proteins,...
