Abstract excerpt
In order to assess the respective impacts of combinatorial rearrangement, junctional diversification, somatic hypermutation and gene conversion in the generation of immunoglobulin heavy chain variable regions diversity, the sequences of 42 variable regions from late fetal, newborn and young sheep...
