Induction of lambda 1-immunoglobulin is determined by a regulatory gene (r lambda 1) linked (or identical) to the structural (c lambda 1) gene

چکیده
The cis-acting gene regulating specifically the inducibility of lambda 1-bearing B cells has been mapped within 2.9 cM of the structural gene. If the lambda 1lo-phenotype is due to the gly leads to val interchange in C lambda 1, then an argument can be made that (a) the lambda 1lo-phenotype is due to inefficient induction of lambda 1lo-bearing B cells and (b) B cell triggering is dependent upon a conformational change in the Ig receptor upon interaction with antigen. If the lambda 1lo-phenotype is due to a regulatory sequence linked to the structural C lambda 1-gene, then it must control the expression of the lambda 1-locus during development into adulthood, e.g., by an effect on methylation.

Background and purpose: Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is a B-cell specific enzyme responsible for somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR) of antibody genes within the B-cell follicle of peripheral lymphoid organs. Ectopic overexpression of the enzyme leads to mutations in non-B cells and Escherichia coli (E.coli) genes. However, induction of mutations in E...

Background: Immunoglobulins are a group of proteins that have important role in defense against microorganisms. Immunoglobulins consist of heavy and light chains. In human, immunoglobulin light chain comprises of two isotypes: Kappa (K) and lambda (λ) based on amino acid differences in carboxylic end of their constant region. Marked changes in the K to λ ratio can happen in monocl...

We determined the DNA sequence of two large regions of chromosome 22: 33.7 kb containing the C lambda complex; and 5.2 kb 5' of the functionally rearranged lambda gene from the human myeloma, U266. Analysis of these sequences reveals the complete structure of the human C lambda complex and a previously undescribed seventh C lambda region that may encode the Ke+Oz- lambda protein. The seven cons...

In pre-B cells, immunoglobulin mu (Ig mu) is associated with pre-B cell-specific proteins to form a multimeric complex that is found on the cell surface. One of these proteins is encoded by the three exon Ig lambda-like gene 14.1, whose expression is restricted to pre-B cells and occurs from an unrearranged gene. A comparison of the 14.1 gene structure to the seven-gene human Ig lambda locus re...
