RemarkCentral region of the intestine.
TypeAntibody
PatternMH33 reactivity in the adult worm is completely restricted to the central region of the intestine, apparently surrounding the intestinal lumen. This is seen more clearly with the isolated adult intestine: MH33 reacts with a tubular structure that can often be seen protruding from the cut end of a dissected intestine where the gut cell cytoplasm has apparently dissociated. This structure presumably corresponds to the ``endotube'' described in the intestines of many larger nematodes. Immunoelectron microscopy shows that MH33 reacts exclusively with a discrete circumferential layer within the terminal web, closely underlying the intestinal microvillar brush border. The MH33 reactive layer continues directly into the electron dense regions that define the CeAJ and that join adjacent gut cells.
RemarkMH33 antigen = ifb-2
