Developmental progression of equine immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region diversity.
Humoral immunity is a critical component of the immune system that is established during fetal life and expands upon exposure to pathogens. The extensive humoral immune response repertoire is generated in large part via immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chain variable region diversity. The horse is a useful model to study the development of humoral diversity because the placenta does not transfer mater...
متن کاملCloning and sequence of the cDNA corresponding to the variable region of immunoglobulin heavy chain MPC11.
Poly(A)-containing mRNA from mouse myeloma MPC11 was transcribed into cDNA which was cloned in the PstI site of the plasmid pBR322. The transformants were screened by hybridization with a cDNA fragment, derived from plasmid p gamma(11)7, corresponding to the 5' portion of the constant region of MPC11 heavy chain. Several positive transformants were found to contain various lengths of the variab...
متن کاملThe Complete Nucleotide Sequence of the Human Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Variable Region Locus
The complete nucleotide sequence of the 957-kb DNA of the human immunoglobulin heavy chain variable (VH) region locus was determined and 43 novel VH segments were identified. The region contains 123 VH segments classifiable into seven different families, of which 79 are pseudogenes. Of the 44 VH segments with an open reading frame, 39 are expressed as heavy chain proteins and 1 as mRNA, while t...
متن کاملCharacterization of a complete immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable region germ-line gene of rainbow trout.
A germ-line heavy-chain variable region (VH) gene (RTVH431) has been isolated from a rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) and characterized by complete nucleotide sequencing. It is characteristic of VH, as shown by the conserved octamer and TATA motif in the 5' region, the heptamernonamer recombination signal sequence in the 3' region, and the 18-amino-acid-long hydrophobic leader interrupted by an ...
متن کاملCoevolution of immunoglobulin heavy- and light-chain variable-region gene families.
The gene families encoding the immunoglobulin variable regions of heavy (VH) and light (VL) chains in vertebrates are composed of many genes. However, the gene number and the extent of diversity among VH and VL gene copies vary with species. To examine the causes of this variation and the evolutionary forces for these multigene families, we conducted a phylogenetic analysis of VH and VL genes f...
