These two hybridomas were among 816 spontaneous B cell hybridomas generated from nonmanipulated spleen and LN cells of three individual MRL/lpr-Igkm/h mice (a total of six fusions). Isot., isotype; React., reactivity; Sm, Smith antigen; Chr, chromatin; gl, germline sequence; mut, number of predicted somatic mutations in the overall V(D)J sequence based on comparison with IMGT-deposited germline sequences.

a

Ig H and L chain gene segments are reported with the IMGT nomenclature. The old nomenclature is given in parenthesis under the IMGT nomenclature.

b

This hybridoma is representative of many clones (∼80% of the all hybridomas) isolated from both the spleen and LNs in all fusions.

c

This hybridoma was from the fusion of LN cells from one MRL/lpr-Igkm/h mouse.
