Figure 5. Semiquantitative Ex Vivo trans-V(D)J Recombination Assay.

Figure 5

(A) Schematic representation of the comparative trans-V(D)J recombination assay. Left panel: recombination of an ESJ 23-RSS (Jδ1/Dδ3 or Dβ1Δ) with a 12-RSS target (Jβ2.7); Right panel: recombination of a coding segment/23-RSS (Dδ3 or Dβ1) with a 12-RSS target (Jβ2.7). The expected breakpoints are shown for each case.

(B) Typical example of semiquantitative PCR/PE assays obtained from the (Jδ1/Dδ3) ESJ × Jβ2.7 versus Dδ3 × Jβ2.7 comparisons. PE assays shown were performed on serial dilutions of PCR products.
