Nuclear positioning rather than contraction controls ordered rearrangements of immunoglobulin loci

Progenitor-B cells recombine their immunoglobulin (Ig) loci to create unique antigen receptors. Despite a common recombination machinery, the Ig heavy and Ig light chain loci rearrange in a stepwise manner. We studied pre-pro-B cells and Rag−/− progenitor-B cells to determine whether Ig locus contra...
