immune system
• some mutant B cells that express Ig lambda differentiate into short-lived plasmacytes in red pulp of lymphoid follicles; plasmacyte response is greater than in Ightm2Mnz cells or wild-type
• fraction of mutant B cells differentiate into short lived germinal center (GC) cells; GC response is greater than in Ightm2Mnz cells
• when equal numbers of Ightm1Mnz and Ightm2Mnz B cells are transferred to wild-type recipient mice, after immunization with NP-Ficoll, Ightm1Mnz B cells preferentially expand and proliferation to make up ~46% of Ig lambda B cells whereas Ightm2Mnz B cells are not expanded
• after 5 days post immunization, 85% of plasmacytes and 60% of germinal center cells are Ightm1Mnz B cells (high affinity)
• mutant B cells with high affinity for antigen are preferentially selected during early phase of T1-2 immune response, over mutant B cells with low affinity for antigen
• there are higher numbers of apoptotic mutant B cells than in wild-type or Ightm2Mnz B cells in spleens 3 and 5 days after immunization
• mutant B cells in mice challenged with a T1-2 antigen (NP-Ficoll) undergo rapid proliferative expansion (from 3 to 25% of lymphocytes by 5 days after immunization
• in immunized mice, on day 2 there is a much higher percentage of high-affinity B cells (58%) compared to wild-type cells (~3%)
• 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenyl)acetyl-specific (NP) IgM antibody production is greater than in Ightm2Mnz B cells or wild-type
• NP-specific IgM antibody production is greater than in Ightm2Mnz B cells or wild-type

cellular
• absolute number of cells in cell cycle is always higher than in Ightm2Mnz or wild-type mice
• there are higher numbers of apoptotic mutant B cells than in wild-type or Ightm2Mnz B cells in spleens 3 and 5 days after immunization
• mutant B cells in mice challenged with a T1-2 antigen (NP-Ficoll) undergo rapid proliferative expansion (from 3 to 25% of lymphocytes by 5 days after immunization

• mice immunized to induced somatic hypermutation show higher mutation frequencies in germinal center derived B cells
• the C to T mutation frequency is increased and inversely, the G to A mutation frequency is decreased in germinal cell B cells, indicating dysregulation of activation-induced cytidine deaminase activity at the V(D)J exon during somatic hypermutation
