| Abstract | We report the use of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)- and HSV-2-infected cell polypeptides (ICPs) separated by electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels and transferred to nitrocellulose to (i) detect monoclonal antibodies to viral polypeptides and to (ii) study the properties of the proteins with the monoclonal antibodies. Our results were as follows. (i) When the antigens were electrophoretically separated in denaturing gels and then immobilized on nitrocellulose strips, we detected a greater diversity of monoclonal antibodies to viral proteins than when we used the technique of immune precipitation of soluble, nondenatured viral antigens. The primary advantage of the technique is in the detection of nonprecipitating antibody and of antibody to poorly soluble antigens not available for reaction in preparations cleared by high-speed centrifugation before immune reaction. (ii) Studies of the viral polypeptides reactive with three monoclonal antibodies indicated that the technique can be used to investigate several properties of the antigens. Specifically, monoclonal antibody to ICP 4 confirmed the accumulation of viral protein in the nucleus and the mapping of the gene in the S component. The results showed, however, that HSV-1 and HSV-2 ICP 4 do have common antigenic determinants. The reaction of a nonprecipitating monoclonal antibody with electrophoretically separated, immobilized polypeptides contained in cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions, those chemically deglycosylated, or those specified by specific HSV-1 x HSV-2 intertypic recombinants identified the antigens reactive with the second monoclonal antibody as various forms of glycoprotein gC. Of particular interest was a set of four antigens, 39,000 to 46,500 in apparent molecular weight, reactive with each of several monoclonal antibodies. These studies showed that two polypeptides partition in the cytoplasm and two in the nucleus and that all comap with the previously mapped ICPs 35 and 37 in the region of the genome defined by the viral thymidine kinase gene on the left and the glycoprotein gA/B gene on the right. Unlike ICP 4 and gC, the four polypeptides are linked by intermolecular bisulfide bonds, inasmuch as the polypeptides were not at the expected locations upon denaturation and electrophoresis in the absence of reducing agents. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
