[Antibodies against p-aminophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside-containing proteins].

: The antibodies were prepared from antisera of rabbits immunized with bovine serum albumin containing covalently bound p-aminophenyl-beta-D-galactopyranoside (APG) and purified by affinity chromatography on APG-containing ovalbumin immobilized by BrCN-activated Sepharose 4B. The antibodies possessed a selective specificity for APG and interacted with different APG-containing proteins, including APG-containing lysosomal alpha-glucosidase. The purified antibodies are immunoglobulins of G type as was determined from the molecular weights of native and dissociated antibodies and from the immunochemical assays with antibodies against rabbit IgG.
