| Abstract | From a library of mouse sperm DNA, we have isolated two overlapping clones which contain the C(delta) gene. One of these clones also contains the C(mu) gene. The C(delta) gene is separated from the C(mu) membrane exons by approximately 2 kilobases (kb) of DAN. The C(delta) gene was identified by (a) hybridization to poly(A)(+)RNA prepared from the IgD-producing rat plasma cell tumor IR731, and (b) homology of a translated nucleotide sequence to the amino acid sequence of the human delta chain. The C(delta) gene spans 8 kb of DNA in the germ line. Plasmid subclones of the C(delta) gene were used as probes in Southern and RNA blot experiments. RNA blot analysis of cytoplasmic poly(A)(+)RNA from IR731 and a mu(+)delta(+) B-cell hybridoma revealed 1.6- and 2.7-kb delta mRNA species with different 3' ends, which presumably encode the secreted and membrane-bound forms, respectively, of the delta chain. Southern blot analysis of DNA from two mu(+)delta(+) lymphomas revealed that the C(delta) gene is in the germ-line configuration in each case. Restriction map analysis of C(mu) and C(delta) genomic clones isolated from a library of normal mu(+)delta(+) B-cell DNA also gave no evidence for DNA rearrangement in the region between the C(mu) and C(delta) genes. Taken together, these data suggest that IgD expression in mu(+)delta(+) B cells does not involve a V(H)-to-C(delta) DNA switch rearrangement. We propose that simultaneous expression of C(delta) and C(delta) with a single V(H) gene is mediated by two alternative routes of RNA processing of a primary nuclear transcript which contains the V(H), C(mu), and C(delta) genes. In contrast, analogous experiments with myeloma IR731 DNA revealed that the C(mu) gene has been deleted from the myeloma DNA and that the C(delta) gene has undergone DNA rearrangement, presumably including a switch recombination of the V(H) gene from the C(mu) to the C(delta) gene. These results indicate that two alternative mechanisms may be used in the expression of IgD molecules-RNA splicing in B cells and DNA rearrangement in plasma cells. |

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.
