Abstract excerpt
Lymphocyte antigen receptor variable regions are encoded by gene segments that are assembled by the site-specific variable (diversity) joining (V(D)J) recombination process. We have assayed the V-3 Chinese hamster ovary cell line, which has a double-strand DNA break repair (dsbr) defect, for the ability to carry out V(D)J recombination following transfection of constructs that encode the RAG-1 and RAG-2 proteins...
