Detection of IgG antibody against pp65422-439 subfragments by serum from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and healthy controls. ELISA was performed for IgG against five pp65 subfragments, pp65386-403, pp65396-413, pp65404-421, pp65414-431 and pp65422-439, using serum from patients with SLE with or without anti-double-stranded DNA antibody (SLE-dsDNA(+), n = 119; SLE-dsDNA(-), n = 119) and normal controls (n = 84). 250× diluted sera were used. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. O.D. optical density
