We have studied a translocation, t(9;14)(p13;q32), in a diffuse large-cell lymphoma cell line, KIS-1, that expresses the Ki-1 (CD30) antigen. Molecular cloning of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain locus (IGH) of this cell line revealed an unknown segment linked 5' to IGH. The breakpoint on chromosome 14 was 265 base pairs downstream from the 3' border of the JH6 joining gene segment. Class switch recombination deleted most of the constant genes of IGH (CH) and juxtaposed the C alpha 2 gene downstre ...[more]
