Abstract excerpt
Allelic exclusion of Ig H and L chain gene loci serves to ensure that a B cell expresses a single specificity antibody. The analysis of Abelson murine leukemia virus transformed cells that rearrange the kappa-locus during growth in cell culture has provided the opportunity to characterize interme...
