Dominant recognition of a cross-reactive B-cell epitope in Mycobacterium leprae 10 K antigen by immunoglobulin G1 antibodies across the disease spectrum in leprosy.
description:
Identical epitope in M. leprae homolog protein except for Glu56, Leu61 and Ala64.
IgG1 reactivity against this peptide was seen in 4 out of 9 lepromatous leprosy patients and in 4 out of 7 tuberculoid leprosy patients.
