Abstract
This invention provides methods for the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus in patients, the sera of which contain antibodies reactive against ribosomal proteins P0, P1 and P2. A peptide containing an amino acid sequence corresponding to the carboxyl termini of the ribosomal proteins, which peptide is bound to a solid carrier, is also provided for use in such methods.
