Characteristics of two idiotypic subfamilies of murine anti-p-azobenzenearsonate antibodies.

A family of antibodies bearing a common or cross-reactive idiotype, termed CRIC, predominates in the response of most BALB/c mice to the p-azobenzenearsonate (Ar) hapten, but represents a minor component of the anti-Ar response of most A/J mice. Previous results have suggested that the VH region of CRIC is encoded by two different germ-line genes in both strains. We have determined extensive mRNA sequences for VH and VL, developed specific idiotypic reagents and measured affinities for two subfamilies of CRIC, designated CRIC1 and CRIC2. Both were found to be minor components of A/J anti-Ar antibodies, and CRIC1, but not CRIC2, is a major component of the BALB/c response. The two subfamilies utilize different VH germ-line genes but the same, or nearly identical V kappa genes. The VH nucleotide sequences of CRIC1 and CRIC2 exhibit approximately 90% homology. The D regions of both families are short (one or two amino acid residues) and some can be accounted for on the basis of known JH sequences alone. Affinity differences may account for the dominance of CRIA over CRIC1 and CRIC2 in A/J mice, but results obtained with allotype-congenic mice indicate that background (non-V region) genes are also important in controlling levels of expression of the CRIC1 idiotype. Our data suggest that the A/J germline VH gene that gives rise to the CRIC2 family of antibodies may be identical with a previously sequenced BALB/c germ-line VH gene. On the basis of these and earlier data it is suggested that extensive differences between inbred strains of mice in their complements of VH genes do not result from the accumulation of many mutations in these genes. An alternative possibility is that the differences arise from deletions and/or duplications of VH genes.
