Abstract excerpt
To identify cis-acting elements responsible for targeting somatic hypermutation to immunoglobulin variable regions, we generated transgenic mice which carry a rearranged lambda 1 gene regulated by the heavy chain intron enhancer, E mu, and the heavy chain promoter PH186.2 from the VH186.2 variable region. C57BL/6 x SJL founders were bred with C57BL/6 mice to establish a line carrying a single copy of the...
