Human protectin (CD59), an 18-20-kD homologous complement restriction factor, does not restrict perforin-mediated lysis
Human protectin (CD59) is an 18-20-kD membrane glycoprotein that restricts lysis of human erythrocytes and leukocytes by homologous complement. By directly incorporating protectin into membranes of heterologous cells we observed that protectin did not prevent perforin- mediated killing, whereas comp...

description | Human protectin (CD59) is an 18-20-kD membrane glycoprotein that restricts lysis of human erythrocytes and leukocytes by homologous complement. By directly incorporating protectin into membranes of heterologous cells we observed that protectin did not prevent perforin- mediated killing, whereas complement killing was effectively restricted. Further, no significant enhancement of cell-mediated killing or target killing by purified perforin was observed with anti- protectin antibodies. Thus, in contrast with complement lysis, restriction of lysis by protectin does not apply to cell-mediated killing. |
