Abstract:The primary humoral responses of mice to the linear random terpolymerl-Glu56-l-Lys35-l-Phe9 (GLø) were studied, utilizing the Farr antigen-binding technique and a new hemagglutination assay. This new hemagglutinin assay was easier and more convenient than the conventional Farr method, and was more sensitive in detecting early IgM responses. Following primary immunization, the majority of antibodies produced by responder strains were 2-ME-sensitive. These 2-ME-sensitive antibodies chromatographed at the same relative position as IgM on a Sepharose 6B column. On the other hand, no antibodies of either the IgM or IgG class could be detected in nonresponder strains. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that two complementingIr genes are required for the primary IgM response to GLø, in contrast to findings previously reported for (T,G)-A — L, anotherH-2-linked, complementing,Ir gene system. The implications of these differences are discussed.
