The continuously proliferating clones L/B AgA2, CB/Bm 7, Ba/C1 and Bc/Bm 11 were established from bone marrow of MRL/LPR, CBA/J and BALB/c mice. These clones carry the B cell lineage surface antigen B-220 but not antigens normally expressed on mature B lymphocytes, myeloid cells, or T lymphocytes. Their Ig .mu. H chain and .kappa. L chain genes are in germ-line configuration. The G418 [O-2-amino-2,7-dideoxy-.alpha.-D-glycero-D-glycoheptopyranosyl-(1 .fwdarw. 4)-O-[3-deoxy-4-C-methyl-3-methylamino-.beta.-L-arabinopyranosyl-(1 .fwdarw. 6)]-2-deoxy-D-streptamine] resistance gene was introduced into each clone with a retrovirus vector and then used as a selective marker for the progeny of transfected cells. Clones L/B AgA2, CB/Bm 7 and Bc/Bm 11, but not Ba/C1, could develop into antibody-secreting cells after in vivo transfer. None gave rise to cells responsive to polyclonal T cell activators, nor did any differentiate into cells that could develop into granulocyte/macrophage-colony-forming cells in vitro. All grew in interleukin 3 but not in other cytokines. Clones L/B AgA2, CB/Bm 7 and Bc/Bm 11 are early precursors of B lymphocytes.
