We have recently reported a new family of nuclear autoantibodies in a subset of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis. These antibodies bind to a nuclear envelope polypeptide(s) of approximately 200 kD, the exact identity of which was not established. In this study, we show that all of these autoantibodies are directed against a 210-kD integral membrane glycoprotein of the nuclear pore.
