Abstract excerpt
The affinity maturation of antibodies is driven by somatic hypermutation which is localized to specific segments of the coding genes. The information available on this process derives from studies in vivo. With the intention of developing new approaches, we have constructed a fusion gene between a kappa chain and a selectable neomycin resistance gene, neor. The neor gene, which includes the SV40 small t intron...
