Rabbit antibodies to double-helical RNA react by complement fixation with synthetic or natural double-strand RNA but not with native DNA. In turn, human (from systemic lupus erythematosus patients) antibodies to native DNA do not react with double-strand RNA. Both types of antibodies show cross-reactions (from 1 percent to 50 percent) with RNA-DNA hybrids, but antibodies to the hybrids do not react at all with double-strand RNA or with native DNA. Antibodies to polydeoxyguanylate.polydeoxycytidylate also failed to react with native DNA.

A quantitative complement fixation assay which specifically measures double-stranded RNA has been used to study this RNA extracted from uninfected and arbovirus-infected cells. The double-straned RNA of the uninfected BHK-21 cells sedimented in the 12S region in sucrose gradients. The double-stranded RNA of Sinbis virus-infected cells, as measured immunochemically, included a predominant peak at 12S, a smaller 18S peak, and polydisperse material extending into the 26-30S region. All classes of this RNA detected immunochemically showed a sharp thermal denaturation curve, and increased in amount progressively during infection, with the 12S peak predominant at all times.
