| Abstract | General base catalysis supplied by the histidine-12 (H-12) residue of ribonuclease (RNase) A has long been appreciated as a major component of the catalytic power of the enzyme. In an attempt to harness the catalytic power of a general base into antibody catalysis of phosphodiester bond hydrolysis, the quaternary ammonium phosphate 1 was used as a bait and switch hapten. Based on precedence, it was rationalized that this positively charged hapten could induce a counter-charged residue in the antibody binding site at a locus suitable for it to deprotonate the 2′-hydroxyl group of the anhydroribitol phosphodiester substrate 2. After murine immunization with hapten 1, mAb production yielded a library of 35 antibodies that bound to a BSA-1 conjugate. From this panel, two were found to catalyze the cyclization-cleavage of phosphodiester 2. Kinetic studies at pH 7.49 (Hepes, 20 mM) and 25°C showed that the most active antibody, MATT.F-1, obeyed classical Michaelis–Menten kinetics with a K m = 104 μM, a k cat = 0.44 min− 1, and a k cat/k uncat = 1.7 × 103. Hapten 1 stoichiometrically inhibits the catalytic activity of the antibody. MATT.F-1 is the most proficient antibody–catalyst (1.6 × 107 M− 1) yet generated for the function of phosphodiester hydrolysis and emphasizes the utility of the bait and switch hapten paradigm when generating antibody catalysts for processes for which general-base catalysis can be exploited. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
