Abstract excerpt
The human antibody response to the capsular polysaccharide of Haemophilus influenzae type b is predominated by antibodies expressing a light-chain-associated idiotype designated HibId-1. HibId-1 is expressed by kappa light chains encoded by either the A2 or A18 variable region genes. In this report we use site-directed mutagenesis and molecular modeling to show that HibId-1 expression is determined by residues in...
