Abzymes are defined as antibodies with catalytic properties.Similarly, synzymes are semisynthetic amino acid copolymers, also having catalytic properties. The production of these two kinds of catalytic proteins is different. Abzymes are made by the immunological methods using specific organichaptens. Synzymes can be the products of, among others, mutagenesis and areproduced by genetic engineering. It has been also suggested that the productsof synzym hydrolysis could be a source of haptens for the production ofabzymes. In conclusion it was stated that a new specialization in biotechnologycould emerge. We called it “immunotechnology”. To these two groups ofimmuno-products the plastic antibodies, which are the molecular imprinting ofdeterminants of the natural antibodies on polymer template, can be added. So,they are completely synthetic products. They are characterised by strong chemical and physical stability under drastic environmental conditions.}, title={Immunotechnology of enzymes and antibodies}, type={Text}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/Content/138867/PDF/POZN271_174160_biotechnologia-2001-no3-wroblewska.pdf}, keywords={biotechnology}, }
