Research Abstract |
The present study demonstrated that a high-molecular weight sialoglycoprotein with apparent molecular masses >500 kDa (GPA oligomer) in bovine erythrocyte membranes consists of glycophorin A, glycophorin B, and CD58. GPA oligomers showed variety among individuals in their protein compositions, contents and sizes. Moreover, there were served different glycophorin B variants and this variation in glycophorin B species appeared to represent the blood group system F. Moreover, diversity of GPA oligomer might be involved in protozoan infectivity into bovine red cells.
