Abstract excerpt
We report the cDNA sequence of an expressed human V lambda II gene and present an RFLP analysis of the Ig gene family defined by this clone. This V lambda II gene was expressed in a monoclonal B cell line generated from a patient with SLE by transformation with EBV. The encoded lambda L chain displays the 8.12 Id, an Id common to anti-DNA antibodies from patients with SLE. Using a coding region probe we estimate...
