We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

Anti-DNA antibodies (Abs) are of biomedical interest because they are associated with autoimmune diseases in human and mice. Previously we isolated an anti-DNA monoclonal Ab 3D8 from an autoimmune-prone MRL-lpr/lpr mouse. Here we have characterized DNA binding kinetics and hydrolyzing activities of the recombinant single chain variable fragment (scFv) and the single variable domains of heavy chain (VH) and light chain (VL) using various single-stranded (ss) and double-stranded (ds) DNA substrates. All the Abs bound to both ds- and ssDNAs without significant preferential sequence specificity showing scFv higher affinities (KD = approximately 17-74 nm) than VH (KD = approximately 2.4-8.4 microm) and VL (KD = approximately 3.2-72 microm), and efficiently hydrolyzed both ds- and ssDNAs without sequence specificity in a Mg2+-dependent manner, except for the poor activity of 3D8 scFv for ss-(dT)40. Elucidated crystal structure-based His to Ala mutations on the complementarity determining regions of VH (His-H35 --&gt; Ala) and/or VL (His-L94 --&gt; Ala) of 3D8 scFv significantly inhibited the catalytic activities, indicating that the His residues are involved in the catalytic mechanism of 3D8 scFv. However, the DNA hydrolyzing activities of single domain VH and VL were not affected by the mutations, indicative of their different catalytic mechanisms from that of 3D8 scFv. Our results demonstrate single domain Abs with DNase activities for the first time, which might provide new insights into substrate recognition and catalytic mechanisms of anti-DNA Abs.
