To determine the contribution of the somatic point mutations and that of the complementarity-determining region (CDR)3 Arg to DNA binding, we engineered the germline V H and V ‹ gene revertant and site-mutagenized the CDR3 Arg residues of the mutated and "antigen-selected" mAb 412.67. This anti-DNA
