Abstract
SUMMARY: Monoclonal antibodies reacting with pellicular antigens ofToxoplasma gondiitachyzoites have been selected among hybridomas produced against this organism by immunofluorescence assay. These antigens have been further characterized by immunofluorescence on living zoites, Western immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation of lactoperoxidase surface radio-iodinated tachyzoite lysates. The simultaneous characterization of 5 different surface antigens (P43, P35, P30, P23, P22) some of which have already been studied individually allowed a better definition of these antigens and the characterization of a yet undescribed surface molecule (P23).This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
