The nephritogenic antigen that induces antiglomerular basement membrane antibody-induced glomerulonephritis (anti-GBM nephritis) in rats was isolated from collagenase-solubilized bovine renal basement membranes. Purification was achieved using antibody-coupled affinity columns which were originally used for the purification of trypsin-solubilized nephritogenic antigen (Sado et al. 1984a). The nephritogenic antigen was a heteropolymer composed of P2 (Mr 28 kDa) and P3 (Mr 30 kDa) polypeptides as monomers and their dimers in sodium-dodecyl-sulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The P3 polypeptide was considered to be the nephritogenic epitope, since a fraction composed of the P2 polypeptide alone was not nephritogenic. The properties of the nephritogenic epitope were the same as those of the Goodpasture epitope (M2*), which is a noncollagenous domain of the alpha 3 chain of type IV collagen (Butkowski et al. 1985; Saus et al. 1988), indicating that the nephritogenic antigen is the same as the Goodpasture antigen.
