Abstract excerpt
Analysis of mice transgenic for immunoglobulin genes should allow definition of the cis-acting DNA sequences required to target somatic mutation to antibody V genes. We have looked for mutations in a chimeric kappa transgene encoding a V region specific for the hapten 2-phenyloxazolone (phOx) linked to a rat C kappa gene. Two independent lines of transgenic mice were hyperimmunized with phOx and splenic...
