"Anti-Ribosomal P (lgG) ELISAis a solid phase enzyme immunoassay employing native human ribosomal P-proteins P0, P1 and P2 isolated from eukaryotic cell line for the quantitative and qualitative detection of antibodies against ribosomal P-proteins(rib-P) in human serum.
The specificity of anti-rib-P antibodies is restricted to a common antigenic determinant located on the highly conserved carboxyl-terminal portion of the three P proteins. The assay is a tool for researching diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)."
