Serological analysis of the deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase of avian oncornaviruses. I. Preparation and characterization of monospecific antiserum with purified deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase
Abstract
Monospecific antiserum was prepared against purified deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase from avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV). Immunodiffusion assay with purified DNA polymerase revealed that the anti-DNA polymerase serum formed one precipitation band, whereas no reaction with any of the seven major structural proteins of AMV was observed. The antiserum also demonstrated enzyme-neutralizing antibody activity that was associated with the immunoglobulin G fraction. There was no difference in the neutralization of DNA polymerase activity directed by ribonucleic acid (RNA), DNA, or RNA-DNA hybrid templates.
