immune system
• the frequency of deletions that occur in the IgH locus during the course of somatic hypermutation is similar to wild-type but the size of the deletions is significantly larger with 80% of the deletions being over a 100bp while deletions in control mice range in size from 3-32 bp
• deletions occur at characteristic RGYW motifs
