[edit] Antibody type and class

IgM

[edit] Assay System

radioimmunoassay, double immunodiffusion, precipitin inhibition tests

[edit] Cross-reactivity

The MAb reacted with the cells of HS1 and E49 (S. cricetus, type a), MT615R and B13 (S. sobrinus, type d), and MF25 and BFe12 (S. sobrinus, type h)

[edit] Proposed epitopes

galactose-α-1,6-glucose is the predominant antigenic determinant of this cross-reactive antigen

[edit] Proposed Utility

This Mab may be useful for studying polysaccharide antigens on Streptococci
