Analysis of somatic mutations revealed that induction of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies from SLE patients are antigen driven and thus T cell dependent. Since DNA per se has repeatedly been shown not to be immunogenic, various mechanisms leading to the production of anti-dsDNA-antibodies have been discuss

Rabbit antibody to chicken liver mitochondrial glutamine synthetase was purified by immunoaffinity chromatography for analysis of the immunological relatedness of vertebrate glutamine synthetases. The antibody cross-reacted with enzymes from representatives of all five vertebrate classes, indicating
## Abstract A sensitive method has been developed which permits comparative analysis of IgM and IgG antibody specificity against lipopolysaccharide (LPS) antigen. It is based on hemolysis of LPSβcoated red blood cells and on its inhibition by homologous and heterologous LPS. By appropriate use of a
