Characterization of Feline Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Variable Region Genes for the Molecular Diagnosis of B-cell Neoplasia
1 Sept 2005
Abstract excerpt
To develop a molecular-based assay so that the diagnosis of feline B-cell neoplasia can be facilitated, we have characterized 24 feline immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGH V) complementary DNA (cDNA) transcripts. Structural homology with rearranged human IGH V genes was found, and the sequence information was used to design a feline-specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay to amplify the...
