    Notes: Receptors that bind the Fc region of bovine immunoglobulin (Ig) have been isolated from the culture supernatant of Haemophilus somnus by chromatography on a Sepharose 4B column. One receptor with a relative molecular weight of 41,000 weakly binds both bovine IgG subclasses, IgA and IgM, while three high molecular weight receptors (350,000, 270,000, and 120,000) strongly bind bovine IgG2, FgA, and IgM. All four Fc receptors are antigenically related and the 41,000 receptor appears to be a subunit of the high molecular weight receptors. In addition to bovine Ig, the purified 270,000 Fc receptor strongly binds horse IgG, rabbit IgG, pig IgG, cat IgG, dog IgG, and sheep IgG. The receptor also reacts weakly with mouse, rat, chicken, human, and guinea pig IgG and does not bind goal IgG. Fc receptors from 19 H. somnus isolates were compared. Variations in the molecular weight of the 41,000 protein were demonstrated among preputial isolates from asymptomatic carriers, but ad other Isolates appeared to have identically migrating proteins.

    Notes: Linked genes encoding two outer membrane proteins (p76 and a family of proteins, p120) of the bovine pathogen, Haemophilus somnus, were investigated. The p120 group was previously shown to have immunoglobulin-binding activity and to react with polyclonal antiserum specific for a 270 kDa antigen (p270) which also had immunoglobulin Fc-binding activity. By Western blotting we showed that the p76 antigen also reacted with this antiserum. The p270, p120, and p76 antigens were undetectable in four serum-sensitive isolates from asymptomatic carriers but were present in the two serum-resistant virulent strains tested. Genes for p120 and p76 were subcloned on non-overlapping pUC plasmids from a cosmid (pHS1) originally cloned from a serum-resistant strain. In Escheriehia coli, plasmid pHS138 expressed p76, while the p120 antigens were produced by pHS140. Southern blots of DNA from the above six strains of H. somnus using probes derived from pHS1 subclones showed that a 13.4kb sequence was missing from the four serum-sensitive strains, but not the two serum-resistant strains. This segment included most of the insert in pHS138 and all of the pHS140 insert. The data indicate that p76 and the p120 proteins are absent from serum-sensitive strains because the coding sequences are missing, raising the possibility of insertion of these genes into the chromosome of both serum-resistant strains, or deletion from the four serum-sensitive strains.
