How immunoglobulin V kappa genes rearrange

M A Shapiro et al. J Immunol. .

Abstract

Recombination at the immunoglobulin kappa light chain locus creates a complete variable region gene and its reciprocal product. The results presented here show that reciprocal products may be substrates for secondary recombination and that at least one V kappa group rearranges by inversion.
