Abstract excerpt
The V(D)J recombinase catalyzes DNA transposition and translocation both in vitro and in vivo. Because lymphoid malignancies contain chromosomal translocations involving antigen receptor and protooncogene loci, it is critical to understand the types of "mistakes" made by the recombinase. Using a newly devised assay, we characterized 48 unique TCRbeta recombination signal sequence (RSS) end insertions in murine...
