CBA/N mice have an X-linked recessive effect that results in the absence of a subpopulation of B cells carrying the Lyb3 surface marker. It has been shown previously that this marker is present on a mature subset of B cells in all mouse strains. In this paper the Lyb3+ B cell population in C57BL/6 mice was analyzed further. This subset of B cells selectively expresses a surface marker controlle...
