| Abstract | Two unusual rearrangements of the T-cell antigen receptor beta-chain gene have occurred in the human T-cell tumor line CEM. The beta chain of the T-cell antigen receptor is encoded in germ-line DNA by immunoglobulin-like gene segments that rearrange during the somatic development of T cells to form active genes. Structural analysis of rearranged immunoglobulin genes has already revealed a great deal about the mechanisms by which these genes rearrange. To further characterize the mechanism by which beta-chain genes rearrange, we have determined the organization of the rearranged beta-chain gene segments in the human T-cell tumor line CEM. Three rearranged joining (J) or diversity (D) segments of the beta-chain gene are found in CEM. One of these segments rearranged during the formation of a normal rearranged beta-chain gene that comprises a variable (V beta), D beta, and J beta gene segment associated with a constant region gene segment. Two abnormal recombination products are found at the other rearranged beta-chain locus. One product has the structure, J beta-D beta-J beta, with the J beta gene segments joined in a head-to-head fashion, while the other one consists of a V beta-D beta recombined segment not associated with a J beta gene segment. We propose that the J beta-D beta-J beta structure was formed by an inversion of 6 kilobases of DNA and subsequently, a V beta-D beta rearrangement occurred. The presence of these products in CEM has important implications for our understanding of the mechanism by which somatic rearrangements of beta-chain gene segments occur. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
