Rabbit antibodies against the Mn-dependent DNAse were obtained. The specificity of the anti-DNAse antibody was established by the enzyme inhibition in vitro. The enzyme activity was inhibited by more than 75 and 54% using rabbit antisera and affinity-purified IgG. Localization of the enzyme in the rat hepatocyte nuclei was studied by indirect immunofluorescence.

Technologies that enable the rapid detection and localization of bacterial infections in living animals could address an unmet need for infectious disease diagnostics. We describe a molecular imaging approach for the specific, noninvasive detection of S. aureus based on the activity of the S.

A scheme for purification of neutral Mn-dependent chromatin DNAase has been developed. The two-step purification procedure, which includes chromatography on hydroxyapatite and isoelectrofocusing, allows one to obtain preparative amounts of the enzyme having a specific activity of more than 3000 u./mg, molecular mass of 41 kDa and pI of 9.

DNase activity in the presence of Ca2+ + Mg2+, Mg2+ alone, Mn2+ alone, or EDTA, and topoisomerase I activity were measured in nuclear extracts of diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced hepatomas, regenerating, fetal, and normal rat livers. In hepatoma tissue, the Ca/Mg-dependent DNase activity was lower than in normal tissue and nearly the same as in fetal liver. In the poorly differentiated hepatomas, Mn-dependent DNase activity was higher than in both moderately and well differentiated ones and than in normal liver tissue.

It was demonstrated that neutral Mn-dependent DNAase from rat liver chromatin stimulates the incorporation of labeled precursors of DNA into high molecular weight fractions of isolated nuclear DNA. The effects of DNA-polymerase inhibitors and the properties of DNA synthesis products suggest that neutral Mn-dependent DNAase can induce replicative synthesis of DNA in the nuclei of normal and regenerating rat liver.
