摘要
A low-molecular-weight immunoglobulin-binding protein (IBP) bound with the cell envelope has been isolated from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis cells and partially characterized. This IBP is a hydrophilic protein with a high polarity index of 55.3%. The molecular weight of the protein has been determined by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry as 14.3 kD. CD spectroscopy showed that the IBP has high contents of the beta-structure and random coil structure. The IBP contains glycine as the N-terminal amino acid. The protein can be stored for a long time at acidic pH values but aggregates and loses activity at alkaline and neutral pH. The IBP binds rabbit IgG with optimum at pH of 6.0-7.5. The IBP interacts with IgG molecule in the Fc-fragment region. The protein retains activity after heating at 100 degrees C in the presence of SDS.
