pubmed:abstractText |
VH6, the most 3' human H chain V region gene, is preferentially expressed in the preimmune repertoire of the developing human fetus. To determine whether VH6 contributes to the immune repertoire, we amplified and sequenced from human spleen RNA VH6 rearrangements that were isotype-switched to IgG. Eighteen distinct in-frame VH6 clones were sequenced. Definitive assignment to C gamma 1 could be made in the majority of clones, and all had undergone extensive somatic hypermutation in the V region with an average of 14 (range, 2 to 25) mutations/281 bp in the VH6 segment. The overall frequency of somatic mutation was 5.2% of the total nucleotides sequenced. Replacement somatic mutations were targeted to the complementarity determining region, and the complementarity determining region had higher replacement to silent mutation ratios, consistent with antigenic selection. Silent somatic mutations were also significantly more frequent in the complementarity determining region compared to the framework region. Five clones were derived from the same VH6Dxp'1JH6 rearrangement, each containing unique and shared mutations. All DH segments used by independently arising clones were unique, and all DH reading frames were seen. N segments were lacking at either the 5'DH-JH junction or the 3'DH-JH junction in 7 of 13 independent rearrangements. DH-DH recombinations were frequently observed, and there was biased usage of JH3b and JH4b in the clones. The data imply that a high degree of diversity arises from use of this 3'-VH gene in the immune repertoire.
