Απομόνωση και δομή προθυμοσίνης α αιγός και συμβολή στη διερεύνηση της βιολογικής δραστικότητας της προθυμοσίνης α
Abstract
dc:descriptionThe primary sequence of goat prothymosin a exhibits a high degree of homology to the sequences of prothymosin a from the other mammalian species. The highest levels of prothymosin a are found in thymus and spleen, with significantly lower levels in non-lymphoid tissues. During development, the lymphoid tissue levels of rat prothymosin a are significantly altered with highest levels observed in newborn and prepubertal rats. Autoantibodies against prothymosin a were detected in 18% of the sera of patients with SLE. These antibodies recognize only the C-terminal portion of the molecule. Human monocytes incubated in complete culture medium with prothymosin a produce increased quantities of thymosin a, (the N-terminal peptide fragment of prothymosin a) in the culture supernatants.
