Somatic Hypermutation in the Absence of DNA-Dependent Protein Kinase Catalytic Subunit (DNA-Pkcs) or Recombination-Activating Gene (Rag)1 Activity

Somatic hypermutation and isotype switch recombination occur in germinal center B cells, are linked to transcription, and are similarly affected by deficiency in MutS homologue (MSH)2. Class-switch recombination is abrogated by disruption of genes encoding components of the catalytic subunit of DNA-...
