V(D)J recombination is a mechanism of genetic recombination that occurs in vertebrates, which randomly selects and assembles segments of genes encoding specific proteins with important roles in the immune system.Background
2 V(D)J recombination of immunoglobulins
3 V(D)J recombination of the T cell receptor
4 Mechanism of recombination
4.In the developing B cell, the first recombination event to occur is between one D and one J gene segment of the heavy chain locus.VDJ segment and this constant gene segment.IgM that is expressed on the surface of the immature B cell.V(D)J recombination of the T cell receptor
During T cell development, the T cell receptor (TCR) chains undergo essentially the same sequence of ordered recombination events as that described for immunoglobulins.TCR that is expressed on a majority of T cells.Recombination Signal Sequences
The regional genes (V, D, J) are flanked by Recombination Signal Sequences (RSSs) that are recognized by a group of enzymes known collectively as the VDJ recombinase.RSSs are composed of seven conserved nucleotides (a heptamer) that reside next to the gene encoding sequence followed by a spacer (containing either 12 or 23 unconserved nucleotides) followed by a conserved nonamer (9 base pairs).VDJ recombinase
VDJ recombinase refers to a collection of enzymes some of which are lymphocyte specific, and some that are expressed in many cell types.This cleavage only takes place on one strand of DNA, which leads to a nucleotide attack and creation of a hairpin loop.PK complexes on each DNA end phosphorylate (add phosphate groups to) each other, resulting in activation of Artemis.PK to align the two DNA ends with each other, and also help to recruit terminal transferase, which adds nucleotides randomly to the ends.Systems
