Coordinate Regulation of RAG1 and RAG2 by Cell Type-Specific DNA Elements 5' of RAG2

TL;DR: In this paper, the regulation of RAG1 and RAG2 was investigated in vivo with bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) transgenes containing a fluorescent indicator, and it was found that asymmetrically disposed cis DNA elements could influence the expression of the primordial transposon and thereby capture RAGs for vertebrate evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of Ig beta in precursor B cell transition and allelic exclusion.

TL;DR: The association between the membrane immunoglobulin (Ig) M heavy chair (micron) and the Ig alpha-Ig beta heterodimer is now shown to be essential in inducing both the transition from progenitor to precursor B cells and subsequent allelic exclusion in transgenic mice.
