Regulation of kappa immunoglobulin gene transcription in vitro.
An in vitro transcription system has been established with a whole-cell extract from the human Burkitt's lymphoma, Daudi, cell line. The B cell extract has been compared with a HeLa cell extract in an effort to study lymphocyte-specific regulatory factors of kappa light chain gene transcription. Both extracts were capable of transcribing Vk genes and other RNA polymerase II dependent genes. Alp...
متن کاملGenomic organization and evolution of immunoglobulin kappa gene enhancers and kappa deleting element in mammals.
We have studied the genomic structure and evolutionary pattern of immunoglobulin kappa deleting element (KDE) and three kappa enhancers (KE5', KE3'P, and KE3'D) in eleven mammalian genomic sequences. Our results show that the relative positions and the genomic organization of the KDE and the kappa enhancers are conserved in all mammals studied and have not been affected by the local rearrangeme...
متن کاملRegulation of immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene rearrangements.
Regulated assembly of antigen receptor gene segments to produce functional genes is a hallmark of B- and T-lymphocyte development. The immunoglobulin heavy-chain (IgH) and T-cell receptor beta-chain genes rearrange first in B and T lineages, respectively. Both loci require two recombination events to assemble functional genes; D-to-J recombination occurs first followed by V-to-DJ recombination....
متن کاملNegative regulation of immunoglobulin kappa light-chain gene transcription by a short sequence homologous to the murine B1 repetitive element.
B-cell-specific expression of the immunoglobulin kappa light-chain (Ig kappa) gene is in part accomplished by negative regulatory influences. Here we describe a new negatively acting element (termed kappa NE) immediately upstream of the NF-kappa B-binding site in the Ig kappa intronic enhancer. The 27-bp kappa NE sequence is conserved in the corresponding positions in the rabbit and human Ig ka...
متن کاملRegulation of mouse kappa opioid receptor gene expression by retinoids.
The effect of retinoids on the expression of kappa opioid receptor (KOR) gene was examined in normal and transgenic animals. KOR-lacZ transgene expression was specifically elevated in KOR-positive areas of the developing CNS by depleting vitamin A from animal diets. The endogenous KOR mRNA species, including all three isoforms, were also upregulated by depleting vitamin A in developing animals....
