5 Questions
What is a defining characteristic of introns in immunoglobulin genes?
They separate coding segments
How is combinatorial diversity achieved in antigen receptor genes?
Through rearrangement of V, D, and J gene segments
Where do B cells undergo VDJ recombination?
Bone marrow
Which statement accurately describes Natural Killer T-cells (NK-T cells)?
Recognize protein antigens
What is one of the unusual properties of gamma delta T cells?
Recognize antigens displayed on MHC molecules
Test your knowledge on introns in immunoglobulin genes, focusing on concepts like coding segments (exons) and combinatorial diversity in antigen receptor gene loci. Explore how different rearrangement combinations of V, D, and J gene segments lead to the generation of receptors with different specificities.
