Abstract excerpt
The low levels of IgE produced by PBMC from normal individuals has so far prevented an analysis of their IgE H chain repertoire. Using a nested polymerase chain reaction approach, we were able to detect epsilon transcripts in all normal and allergic individuals we investigated. We further cloned epsilon CDR3/FW4 regions from two normal and two atopic individuals with low serum IgE levels. Sequence analysis of 104...
