| Research Abstract |
We expressed Flag tagged M1(M1-FL) and HA tagged M1(HA-M1) together in HEK 293T cells and immunoprecipitated using anti-Flag antibody. In the precipitate, HA-M1 was detected in the westernblot analysis with anti-HA antibody. When M1 from filamentous virus A/ Udorn/ 72(H3N2) was analyzed in this system, it was shown that pH of the IP buffer did not affect the formation of complex. On the other hand, M1 from A/ WSN/ 33(H1N1), which forms spherical particle, formed the complex which showed susceptibility to the environmental pH.
