Purification and immunological studies of the cross-reaction between the 65-kilodalton gonococcal parietal lectin and an antigen common to a wide range of bacteria.

RESUMO

The 65-kDa gonococcal parietal lectin (GPL) has been purified and found to have a lectinlike activity exhibiting both structural and immunological similarities to the common antigen family. Ultrastructural localization of GPL was done by using anti-GPL monoclonal antibodies: GPL is a major component of the outer membrane and is also present in blebs formed by gonococci.
