A Hypermutable Insert in an Immunoglobulin Transgene Contains Hotspots of Somatic Mutation and Sequences Predicting Highly Stable Structures in the RNA Transcript

Immunoglobulin (Ig) genes expressed in mature B lymphocytes can undergo somatic hypermutation upon cell interaction with antigen and T cells. The mutation mechanism had previously been shown to depend upon transcription initiation, suggesting that a mutator factor was loaded on an RNA polymerase ini...
