Frequent occurrence of identical heavy and light chain Ig rearrangements
1 May 1997
Abstract excerpt
Single-cell PCR analyses of expressed Ig H and L chain sequences presented here show that certain rearrangements occur repeatedly and account for a major segment of the well-studied repertoire of B-1 cell autoantibodies that mediate the lysis of bromelain-treated mouse erythrocytes, i.e. antibodies reactive with phosphatldyicholine (PtC). We repeatedly isolated at least 10 different types of VH region...
