title: Studies on J-chain biosynthesis in tumours producing immunoglobulins in NZB mice.
abstract: Investigation of biosynthesis of J chain in plasmacytomas induced in NZB mice revealed that this protein was not only synthesized in the cells that produce polymer immunoglobulin A but also in those that produce immunoglobulin G monomer. It was also found that protein similar to J chain of BALB/c-mice was associated with polymer immunoglobulin A but not with immunoglobulin G of NZB mouse myeloma proteins.
