title: Identification of mouse J chain in human IgM produced by an electrofusion-derived mouse-human heterohybridoma.
abstract: EBV transformed human B cell line secreting IgM was fused with X63-Ag8.653 mouse cell line. Hybrids were selected in medium containing HAT and ouabain. IgM from a clone was purified by affinity chromatography. Western blot analysis of the heterohybridoma IgM showed the presence of mouse J chain when probed with antiserum against mouse J chain.
