Transgenic mice containing a microinjected rearranged immunoglobulin (Ig) mu heavy chain gene were examined for the effects on DNA rearrangement of the endogenous Ig genes. Abelson murine leukemia virus (A-MuLV) cell lines were isolated from pre-B cells of transgenic mice and of normal littermates. Microinjected mu gene RNA and a mu heavy chain protein were synthesized in every transgenic A-MuLV cell line. Only 10% of normal mouse A-MuLV transformants synthesized mu protein. A germ-line JH allele was observed in 40% of the transgenic lines, demonstrating that the block to endogenous Ig DNA rearrangement occurred at the first step of heavy chain DNA joining. All alleles were rearranged in normal mouse A-MuLV lines. Germline JH alleles were also detected in 10% of the transgenic hybridomas derived from proliferating B cells. Our results support a model of active prevention of rearrangement by the product of successfully rearranged mu genes.
