How is antibody diversity generated? Two early theories: Germline hypothesis The genome contains many loci encoding antibody molecules B cells express one of these loci. Different B cells express different loci. Somatic mutation hypothesis There are a small number of antibody genes which undergo mutation as the B cell matures -thus giving rise to B cells expressing antibody of different specificity

Three genetic loci encode immunoglobulin molecules: two loci encoding the light chains kappa locus lambda locus -one locus encoding the heavy chain These three loci are located on different chromosomes TABLE 5-1 CHROMOSOMAL LOCATIONS OF IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES IN HUMAN AND MOUSE Chromosome Gene Human Mouse λLight chain 22 16 K Light chain 2 6 Heavy chain 14 12

Three genetic loci encode immunoglobulin molecules: - two loci encoding the light chains - kappa locus - lambda locus - one locus encoding the heavy chain These three loci are located on different chromosomes

The loci encoding immunoglobulins have a unique structure. composed of "gene segments" The heavy chain locus has multiple V(variable)segments,multiple D (diversity)segments,multiple J(joining)segments and multiple C (constant)segments. During maturation,one of each V,D and J segment is randomly "chosen" and used to encode the final antibody molecule.
