Immunization of rabbits with DNase I produces polyclonal antibodies with DNase and RNase activities

Abstract: Immunization of rabbits with DNase I leads to the production of antiidiotypic Abs with DNase activity. It is not known at present whether antiidiotypic Abs against DNA-hydrolyzing enzymes can possess RNase activity. Here we show that immunization of healthy rabbits with bovine DNase I produces IgGs with intrinsic DNase and RNase activities. Electrophoretically and immunologically homogeneous polyclonal IgGs were obtained by sequential chromatography of the immune sera on Protein A-Sepharose and gel filtration.… Show more

“…Interestingly, when Abs were eluted from DNA-cellulose by a NaCl gradient (0-3 M) and then acidic buffer (pH 2.6) the Abs and their DNase and RNase activities were distributed all over the chromatography profile (for example, Figure 8A) [70,71]. The same situation was observed for Abs with nuclease activities from sera of MS patients [8,[80][81][82], and rabbits immunized with DNA, RNA, DNase I, DNase II, and pancreatic RNase [49,50,[55][56][57]. The affinity of Abs fractions for these substrates was increased gradually with the increase in eluting salts concentrations.…”

“…Our findings indicate that a variety of anti-DNA and anti-RNA abzymes are able to hydrolyze both DNA and RNA [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. In this respect, it should be mentioned that after immunization of rabbits with DNA, RNA, DNase I, DNase II, and pancreatic RNase I, antinuclease IgGs with different affinity to DNA were separated for several fractions by chromatography on DNA-cellulose [49,50,[55][56][57].…”
