We have analyzed the organization and the structure of rabbit kappa chain genes encoding b allotypes in wild rabbits. The kappa 1 gene of the b95 allotype was cloned and its structure determined. The J region is composed of five segments but only J2 appears to be functional and is identical to the J
Partial amino acid sequences have been determined for several kappa-type light chains prepared from sera or urine of inbred LOU/C/Wsl rats bearing plasma cell tumors. Comparison of these sequences with those of human, rabbit, and mouse kappa-chains available in the literature indicates that the cons
During the initial stages of B lymphocyte differentiation heavy chain variable (VH), diversity (DH) and joining (JH) gene segments recombine to form a functional heavy chain variable region (VDJ) gene. Evidence for genetic polymorphism of the human JH gene segments has been obtained from mature rear
