Abstract excerpt
Somatic mutation activity in immunoglobulin V kappa genes during the response to the hapten 2-phenyl-5-oxazolone was measured in lymph node B-cell populations at various timepoints after footpad immunization. When the V kappa Ox1 genes rearranged to the J kappa 5 segment were amplified from genomic DNA using the polymerase chain reaction and sequenced, somatic mutations could be detected as early as day 4 after...
