Abstract

Immunological Properties Evidence by the A rubens Sea Star immunoglobulin Kappa Gene

Michel Leclerc and Patricia Otten

In 2013-2014, we had discovered a sea star Igkappa gene, showing 2 Ig sites, after star sea immunizations to HRP. By using this gene and introducing it into an Escherichia coli plasmid, we were able to verify that this gene had the property to induce a specific immune response to the enzyme HRP (Horse- radish peroxydase).
