Open Access Abstract We previously demonstrated the importance of the RNP1 motifbearing region 131-151 of the U1-70K spliceosomal protein in the intramolecular T-B spreading that occurs in MRL lpr lupus mice. Here we analyze the involvement of RNP1 motif in the development and prevention of naturally-occurring intermolecular T-B cell diversification. We found that MRL lpr peripheral blood lymphocytes proliferated in response to peptides containing or corresponding exactly to the RNP1 motif of spliceosomal U1-70K U1-A and hnRNP-A2 proteins. We also demonstrated that rabbit antibodies to peptide 131-151 cross-reacted with U1-70K U1-A and hnRNP-A2 RNP1-peptides. These antibodies recognized the U1-70K and U1-A proteins and also U1-C and SmD1 proteins which are devoid of RNP1 motif. Repeated administration of phosphorylated peptide P140 into MRL lpr mice abolished T-cell response to several peptides from the U1-70K U1-A and SmD1 proteins without .
