Selection of Ig μ Heavy Chains by Complementarity-Determining Region 3 Length and Amino Acid Composition
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Although it is generally accepted that Ig heavy chains (HC) are selected at the pre-B cell receptor (pre-BCR) checkpoint, the characteristics of a functional HC and the role of pre-BCR assembly in their selection have remained elusive. We determined the characteristics of HCs that successfully passed the pre-BCR checkpoint by examining transcripts harboring VH81X and JH4 gene segments from JH+/− and λ5−/−mice. VH81X-JH4-HC transcripts isolated from cells before or in the absence of pre-BCR assembly had no distinguishing complementarity-determining region 3 traits. In contrast, transcripts isolated subsequent to passage through the pre-BCR checkpoint had distinctive complementarity-determining regions 3 of nine amino acids in length (49%) and a histidine at position 1 (73%). Hence, our data define specific structural requirements for a functional HC, which is instrumental in shaping the diverse B cell repertoire.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
