The Immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy (H) chain class switch permits expression of a mature variable (VDJ) region with constant (C) regions other than Cμ (for review see [6]). Molecular analysis of IgH loci which have undergone isotype switching has led to the observation that this event results in the deletion of the Cμ gene and the intervening genomic sequences [18, 21]. The looping-out and deletion model for switch recombination predicts that the intervening DNA between switch (S) regions will be excised as a circle [9]. Circular excision products of Ig switch recombination have recently been isolated from mitogen stimulated spleen cells [7, 8, 14, 25]. This finding confirms that switch recombination occurs by the looping-out and deletion mechanism.
