| abstractText | beta 2-Microglobulin (beta 2m) is expressed on the cell surface after introduction of a beta 2mb (C57BL/6N) genomic clone into thymidine kinase-deficient mouse L cells by cotransformation using the calcium phosphate precipitate method. Stable transformant cell lines were identified that express the beta 2mb allele, as determined by reaction of the cells with appropriate monoclonal antibodies and by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of endogenously labeled immunoprecipitates of cell extracts. These beta 2mb transformants now express ly-m11.2, as detected by an indirect radioimmunoassay. A plasmid subclone of the beta 2mb gene that contains an 8.4-kilobase insert, after introduction into mouse L cells, similarly directs the synthesis of both the beta 2mb and the ly-m11.2 antigens. Thus, the beta 2mb and ly-m11.2 determinants most likely represent sites on the same protein structure. |
