Lupus autoantibodies discriminate between the highly homologous Sm polypeptides B/B' and SmN by binding an epitope restricted to B/B'.

The ubiquitous Sm polypeptides B/B' (28 and 29 kD) and the highly homologous tissue-specific Sm N polypeptide (29 kD) share several autoepitopes recognized by systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) sera. Previous studies on the antigenicity of nuclear antigens recognized by human autoantibodies hav...
