A comprehensive analysis of immunoglobulin heavy chain genes in the Bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus) [PDF]
Heavy chain only antibodies (HCAbs) represent a rare type of antibody that is devoid of light chains and the CH1 domain that have been reported in cartilaginous fish and camelids.

The Determinants of B Cell Receptor Signaling as Prototype Molecular Biomarkers of Leukemia
Advanced genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified several transforming mutations in susceptible loci which are recognized as valuable prognostic markers in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and B cell lymphoma (BCL).

Somatic hypermutation of immunoglobulin and non–immunoglobulin genes [PDF]
Somatic hypermutation (SHM) of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes is a highly specific mechanism restricted to B lymphocytes during only a few cell generations. Data presented here suggest that transcription of the target genes is required, but not sufficient for SHM. Presumably, cis –acting elements,

Characterization of chicken spleen transcriptome after infection with Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis. [PDF]
In this study we were interested in identification of new markers of chicken response to Salmonella Enteritidis infection. To reach this aim, gene expression in the spleens of naive chickens and those intravenously infected with S.

Physical map and one-megabase sequencing of the human immunoglobulin lambda locus
The human immunoglobulin lambda (IGL) locus is located on chromosome 22q11.1-q11.2 and contains the genes responsible for the immunoglobulin lambda light chains. This locus was recently mapped (physical map) and its 1-Mb DNA totally sequenced.

Expansion of the preimmune antibody repertoire by junctional diversity in Bos taurus. [PDF]
Cattle have a limited range of immunoglobulin genes which are further diversified by antigen independent somatic hypermutation in fetuses. Junctional diversity generated during somatic recombination contributes to antibody diversity but its relative ...

Fungicidal activity of peptides encoded by immunoglobulin genes
Evidence from previous works disclosed the antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-tumour and/or immunomodulatory activity exerted, through different mechanisms of action, by peptides expressed in the complementarity-determining regions or even in the constant ...
