Abstract excerpt
The investigation of 750 B-lymphocyte hybridoma clones obtained by fusion of mouse myeloma and newborn heterozygous Igk-la/Igk-1b rat splenocytes has revealed that 9,8% of Ig kappa-chain genes are rearranged productively. Seventeen hybridomas secrete kappa-chains of both allelic variants. The analysis of IgM molecules of nine such clones demonstrated that in six cases only one L-chain allotype is present in IgM....
