Opsonic characteristics of chylomicron-bound protein
Abstract:
A blood protein in complex with native chylomicrons was labeled with radiogold colloid, thus indirectly identifying the protein material in the complex as opsonin and suggesting the possibility that native chylomicrons may utilize the opsonin system for its clearance from the circulation. The protein in question has been shown to be at least divalent, in that the protein in combination with one type of particle could still react with another. It is felt that these studies provide further insight into the complex surface events that result during the process of opsonization.

Conjugated Proteins
Nucleoproteins are protein complexes that contain nucleic acids, categorized as deoxyribonucleoproteins (DNPs) or ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) respectively. The nucleosome is a typical example of a DNP where nuclear DNA is associated with histone proteins. The major antigen for the Covid-19 virus SARS-CoV is an RNP that is critical...
