DNA precipitation by normal rabbit sera

  • Microbiology and Immunology
  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Summary

It was demonstrated that the DNA preparations can be precipitated by normal rabbit sera; no nucleic acid specificity was revealed in such cases. The capacity of DNA to precipitate with normal rabbit sera did not depend on the amount of protein admixtures in the DNA preparations and was determined by the polymeric state of the DNA molecule.

Normal precipitants to DNA are unstable when stored at+4°C.
