N2 - Interleukin-1 (IL-1) receptors can be solubilized from murine cell surface and immunoprecipitated with a xenogeneic rat antisera raised in this laboratory. We demonstrated first that this antiserum contains antibodies directed against IL-1 receptors. We have now successfully used this antiserum as a reagent to immunopurify polysomes along with their messenger RNA from a murine leukemic cell line know to express relatively high levels of IL-1 receptors. The immunoselected mRNA was translated into proteins in vitro. The translation products contained an IL-1 binding protein which could specifically bind to immobilized IL-1 but not to other immobilized ligands such as interleukin-2 or tumor necrosis factor-α. The translation products which bound to IL-1 could be acid-eluted from the immobilized ligand, and the proteins released could still specifically bind to IL-1 in a receptor-ligand binding reaction. The eluted IL-1 binding proteins, as well as soluble receptor-ligand complexes derived from them, could also be immunoprecipitated with the xenogeneic rat antiserum. The xenogeneic rat antiserum could, furthermore, immunoprecipitate the IL-1 binding proteins from the translated products before ligand was added. The residual translated products no longer interacted with IL-1. We conclude that our antiserum contains antibodies that recognize determinants expressed on the following proteins: on nascent chains of IL-1 binding proteins; on soluble translated IL-1 binding proteins; on soluble complexes of IL-1 binding proteins that had been cross-linked with IL-1 ligand; and on cell surface-associated IL-1 receptors. The translated and unprocessed IL-1 binding proteins have a molecular mass of approximately 52,000-56,000 daltons.
