Individual B cells transcribe multiple rearranged immunoglobulin light chains in teleost fish

B cells express a unique antibody protein which comprises two pairs of immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy (H) and light (L) chains. In addition to an invariable constant (C) region, IgH and IgL chains encompass a variable (V) region mediating antigen binding. This unique region stems from Ig V(D)J gene recom...
