Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide substitutions are found in recombined Ig switch (S) regions and also in unrecombined (germline, GL) Smicro segments in activated splenic B cells. Herein we examine whether mutations are also introduced into the downstream acceptor S regions prior to switch recombination, but find very...
