Identification of mitochondrial antigens recognized by antibodies in sera of patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and protein sequencing

Antimitochondrial antibodies in sera of patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) have been described previously, but the corresponding antigens have not been analyzed systematically. We therefore used both 1-dimensional and high-resolution 2-
