1 Autoantigens in Vitiligo Identified by the Serological Selection of a Phage-Displayed Melanocyte cDNA Expression Library  Elizabeth A. Waterman, David J. Gawkrodger, Philip F. Watson, Anthony P.

2 Figure 1 Enrichment of the melanocyte cDNA phage display library with vitiligo patient IgG. The melanocyte cDNA phage display library was incubated with biotinylated vitiligo patient IgG. The phage–antigen–IgG complexes were captured on Dynabeads M-280 Streptavidin. Non-specifically bound and unbound phage particles were removed by washing. IgG-bound phage particles were eluted and used to infect E. coli XL1-Blue and amplified for use in further rounds of selection.

3 Figure 2 Antibody (Ab) indices of vitiligo patient and control sera in radioimmunoassays. Non-segmental vitiligo patient (n=53), segmental vitiligo patient (n=8) and control (n=28) sera were analyzed in radioimmunoassays for Ab reactivity to gamma-enolase, alpha-enolase, HSP90, osteopontin, ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (UCE), translation-initiation factor 2 (TIF2), and GTP-binding protein, Rab38, as detailed in Materials and Methods. The Ab index shown for each serum sample is the mean of at least two experiments. The upper limits of normal for each radioimmunoassay were Ab indices of gamma-enolase, 1.30; alpha-enolase, 1.40; HSP90, 1.59; osteopontin, 1.38; UCE, 1.22; TIF2, 1.23; GTP-binding protein, Rab38, S, symmetrical vitiligo patients; Seg, segmental vitiligo patients; C, healthy controls.
