Abstract
Purified proteins have been isolated from the sera and livers of mice. These proteins are antigenically identical but share antigenic determinants in common with human C-reactive protein and do not share antigenic determinants in common with mouse or human immunoglobulins. The proteins interact with C-polysaccharide, are precipitated by calcium ions, migrate electrophoretically with gamma mobilities, and have isoelectric points of 4.8 and 5.62. Since these properties are characteristic of C-reactive protein of man, monkey, rabbit and dog, the pure proteins isolated from mice are designated mouse C-reactive protein.
