For almost twenty years now, the clonal selection theory (Jerne, 1955; Burnet, 1959; Lederberg, 1959) has been the major paradigm for most immunologists. The clonal selection theory has a great appeal to logic and the elegance of simplicity, and it is in fact able to account for a vast body of data. The central idea of clonal selection is that the immune system is a library of precommitted clones, able to manufacture a pair of V-region polypeptides (VH and VL). It is essential to the clonal selection theory that each member of the clone expresses the same pair of V genes.
