Sporozoites and merozoites of Cryptosporidium parvum share a common epitope recognized by a monoclonal antibody and two-dimensional electrophoresis
Abstract
Sporozoites and merozoites of Cryptosporidium parvum were analyzed for the presence of a 15 kDa surface antigen using a monoclonal antibody probe. Both were found to possess the antigen by immunofluorescence, and further analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis confirmed these observations. When separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis the isoelectric point was found to be similar, with major spots at 4.25 and minor spots at 4.15.
