Abstract: | The lymphoma cell line BJAB.B95.8.6 was gamma-irradiated to induce mutations of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) encoded genes. Cloned wild-type cells were phenotyped HLA-A1, A2, B 13, 1335, Bw4, Bw6, Cw4, DR5, DRw52, DQwl, DQw3, DPw2, DPw4, GLO1*1, PGM3*2-1, and ME1*0 and possessed two apparently normal chromosome 6s prior to mutagenesis. Loss mutants were selected 5 days after 3 Gy gamma-irradiation employing three complement-fixing monoclonal antibodies specific for HLA-A2 (TÜ101) and Bw4 (TÜ48, TÜ109). Fifteen independently arising mutants were isolated and cloned. Typing with monospecific alloantisera and cell-mediated lympholysis revealed the presence of HLA-A1, 835, Bw6, Cw4, DR5. DRw52, DQw3, and DPw4 specificities on all mutant clones. HLA-A2, B13, and Bw4 were absent. Mutants differed in their expression of class 11 antigens. One group retained DQw1 and DPw2, another was DQw1–, DPw2+, and a third was DQw1–, DPw2–. Karyotyping of the wild-type line and selected mutant clones showed that the loss of HLA specificities correlated with deletions which map the HLA-A and -B loci directly to the distal part of the 6p2l.33 region and the class II genes to the region 6p21.33 (proximal) to 6p21.31 (distal) on the short arm of chromosome 6.Abbreviations used in this paper: CML cell-mediated lympholysis - CTX cytotoxicity - DBBA direct bacterial binding assay - EBV Epstein-Barr virus - GLO glyoxalase - IBBA indirect bacterial binding assay - LU lytic units - ME1 cytoplasmic malic enzyme - MHC major histocompatibility complex - MOAB monoclonal antibody - NADP nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate - PGM3 phosphoglucomutase isozyme 3In partial fulfillment of Ph.D. thesis requirements. |
