Expressed human immunoglobulin kappa genes and their hypermutation.

European journal of immunology - 1 Dec 1993

Klein R, Jaenichen R, Zachau H G

Abstract excerpt

The question of which germ-line V kappa genes are expressed was studied by sequencing 70 different cDNA clones from a human spleen library and one clone from a fetal liver library. The sequences were compared to a data base containing all germ-line V kappa gene and pseudogene sequences. In addition, 51 rearranged genomic V kappa genes, 170 cDNA and 74 kappa proteins from the literature were assigned to specific...
