Abstract

Polyclonal antibodies were raised against proteinase K and were used to immunolocalize the major extracellular proteinase of the sap-staining fungus Ophiostoma piceae (Münch) H. and P. Sydow. Immunodot blotting showed that the IgG antibodies recognized both enzymes but reacted more strongly with proteinase K than with the O. piceae proteinase. Immunogold labelling and transmission electron microscopy revealed that the O. piceae proteinase was localized in the cell walls of O. piceae grown either in liquid media or wood. Key words: Ophiostoma piceae, proteinase, immunogold labelling, transmission electron microscopy, antibody, proteinase K.
