Molecular cloning of the human Goodpasture antigen demonstrates it to be the alpha 3 chain of type IV collagen.
1 Feb 1992
Abstract excerpt
To characterize the autoantigen of Goodpasture's (anti-glomerular basement membrane) disease, a molecule of 26-kD reactive with autoantibodies from patients' sera was purified from collagenase digests of sheep glomerular basement membrane. Short internal amino acid sequences were obtained after tryptic or cyanogen bromide cleavage, and used to deduce redundant oligonucleotides for use in the polymerase chain...
