Abstract excerpt
The CDR3 of the Ig H chain (CDR3(H)) is significantly different in fetal and adult repertoires. To understand the mechanisms involved in the developmental changes in the CDR3(H) of Ig H chains, sets of nonproductive V(H)DJ(H) rearrangements obtained from fetal, full-term neonates and adult single B cells were analyzed and compared with the corresponding productive repertoires. Analysis of the nonproductive...
