Abstract

A heavy chain component of γG-globulins in normal urines has the characteristics of the proteolytic digestion product, Fc-fragment. This fragment is estimated to compose up to 15% of the gamma globulins present in urines. In contrast to urinary light chains, the urinary Fc-like fragment probably represents a catabolic component in normal γG-globulin metabolism.
