Abstract excerpt
The transcriptional enhancer (E(mu)3') of the IgH locus of the channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, shows strong B cell-specific activity and differs from the mammalian E(mu) enhancer in both location and structure. It occurs between the mu and delta genes and contains numerous transcription factor binding sites, predominantly octamer and muE5 motifs of consensus and variant sequences. It lacks the classical...
