Immunoglobulin gamma 2b transgenes inhibit heavy chain gene rearrangement, but cannot promote B cell development
Transgenic mice with a gamma 2b transgene were produced to investigate whether gamma 2b can replace mu in the development of B lymphocytes. Transgenic gamma 2b is present on the surface of B cells. Young transgenic mice have a dramatic decrease in B cell numbers, however, older mice have almost normal B cell numbers. Strikingly, all gamma 2b-expressing B cells in the spleen also express mu. The...
متن کاملCloning and sequence determination of a human rheumatoid factor light-chain gene.
The contribution of germ-line variable regions to autoantibody formation in humans is poorly understood. To study the gene structure of a human autoantibody, chronic lymphatic leukemia (CLL) cells from a patient with an IgM anti-IgG (rheumatoid factor, RF) paraprotein were utilized. The rearranged immunoglobulin gene encoding the kappa light chain for the RF was cloned, and the nucleic acid seq...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of drought responsive partial gene sequence(s) from Oryza sativa L. subsp. Indica.
Differential display gels were run for the drought tolerant (N-22) and drought susceptible (Panidhan) genotypes of rice (Oryza sativa) to identify the genes showing differential expression with respect to moisture stress. Differential cDNA products were cloned in PCR-Trap vector and analyzed for differential expression by Northern hybridization. Two clones namely R4A and R7G were found to be as...
متن کاملAcinetobacter cyclohexanone monooxygenase: gene cloning and sequence determination.
The gene coding for cyclohexanone monooxygenase from Acinetobacter sp. strain NCIB 9871 was isolated by immunological screening methods. We located and determined the nucleotide sequence of the gene. The structural gene is 1,626 nucleotides long and codes for a polypeptide of 542 amino acids; 389 nucleotides 5' and 108 nucleotides 3' of the coding region are also reported. The complete amino ac...
متن کاملAn antisense oligonucleotide complementary to a sequence in I gamma 2b increases gamma 2b germline transcripts, stimulates B cell DNA synthesis, and inhibits immunoglobulin secretion
An antisense phosphorothioate (S)-oligonucleotide to a sequence in the intervening (I) region of the gamma 2b immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chain gene inhibits Ig secretion by B cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or LPS plus interleukin 4. It is also a striking stimulant of DNA synthesis by resting B cells. The antisense S-oligonucleotide causes a 10-20-fold increase in the expression o...
