A high molecular weight protein antigen, designated P1, has been isolated from the culture fluid of chemostat-grown Streptococcus mutans strain Ingbritt and shown to be free of other antigens including glucosyltransferase. Antiserum against the protein was used in rocket immunoelectrophoresis to confirm and extend the previous observation that there were major differences in the amount of the protein produced under different growth conditions. Physico-chemical and serological studies indicated that protein P1 was indistinguishable from antigens B, I/II and IF isolated in other laboratories. Mammalian tissue cross-reactivity of protein P1 was demonstrated by binding of antiserum to P1 to sections of normal rabbit tissues, particularly heart. There was also a statistically significant increase in the number of mononuclear leucocytes in heart tissue of rabbits which had been injected with protein P1, when compared with the levels in control uninjected rabbits; injection with whole cells of S. mutans Ingbritt did not produce this effect.
