Immunological relationships between homologous structural polypeptides of measles and canine distemper virus

Abstract

The major structural polypeptides of measles and canine distemper virus (CDV) were isolated by SDS-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis. Rabbit hyperimmune sera directed against the isolated HA, P, NP, F and M polypeptides were prepared. In addition, rabbit hyperimmune sera directed against purified native internal components of measles virus and against purified virions of measles and CDV, untreated or treated with trypsin, were prepared. These sera were used to study the immunological relationships between measles and CDV in immune precipitation tests with 35S-methionine-labelled extracellular virions and intracellular virus polypeptides and by use of component fixation and mixed haemadsorption tests. An immunological relationship between the M polypeptides was demonstrated with sera against both native partially denatured antigens. A reciprocal immunological cross-reactivity between the NP polypeptides was demonstrated by the use of sera directed against native antigens. However, antisera directed against the NP polypeptides isolated from gels did not show any cross-reaction, indicating that they lacked antibodies against the shared antigenic determinants. The immunological cross-reactivity between envelope components of ...Continue Reading
