TEPC 1017 is a BALB/c plasmacytoma that synthesizes IgD in large enough amounts to permit the isolation of mRNA for mouse delta chains. cDNA has been prepared from this mRNA, and an 880-base-pair fragment of it has been cloned by recombinant DNA techniques. The hybridization selection technique has been used to show that this cDNA clone specifically binds only mRNA that can be translated into immunoprecipitable delta chains. the sequence of a portion of this clone has been determined and, when translated, shows homology with the C delta 3 of a human myeloma protein. Using this cDNA clone as a probe, we have found that several different-sized delta RNAs are present in TEPC 1017 and in another IgD-secreting plasmacytoma, TEPC 1033.

D002474 Cell-Free System A fractionated cell extract that maintains a biological function. A subcellular fraction isolated by ultracentrifugation or other separation techniques must first be isolated so that a process can be studied free from all of the complex side reactions that occur in a cell. The cell-free system is therefore widely used in cell biology.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
