Identification of a 25 kDa polypeptide associated with the L antigen in low potassium-type sheep red cells.
Antisera to the L blood group antigen have been used, following radioiodination of low potassium-type sheep red cells and subsequent immunoprecipitation, to identify a polypeptide of the L antigen. Only LK, and not HK, cells express this 25 kDa component which is present in very low copy number.
