0-444-80915-5 (U.S.) Printed in The Netherlands V Preface Immunoglobulin genes are not just of interest to immunologists An understanding of the way in which DNA rearrangement and somatic mutation contribute to antibody diversity is of importance to a wide range of biologists The cell-type specificity of immunoglobulin gene expression is of concern to many who are interested in gene expression in mammals Furthermore, the immunoglobulin superfamily itself presents important questions to those interested in evolution The analysis of immunoglobulins and of their genetics has advanced rapidly since the mid-l970s, mainly as a result of the application of recombinant DNA and monoclonal antibody technologies The essential features of the molecular anatomy of both antibodies and their genes have been largely identified; this has resulted in significant insights into the way antibody diversity is generated Clearly, much still remains to be elucidated in these areas, whilst studies both of regulation and of phylogeny are still in their infancy We felt nevertheless that it was a good time to draw together what we know about the molecular genetics of immunoglobulin We wish to thank the

text for details sulted from the fusion of multiple copies of a smaller building block [202]; (2) derivation of the C unit, which presumably greatly favoured chain-chain association, whilst allowing greater flexibility in the structure of the V domain; (3) splitting of the exon encoding the V domain which dramatically increased the potential for variability The evolutionary relatedness found amongst members of the immunoglobulin superfamily suggests that the diversity of present day functions constitutes an adaptation, under different selective pressures of the same primordial function The biological role of those members whose function has yet to be determined can also be expected to be related to this primordial function Since primordial functions are phylogenetically conserved, the investigation of structurally and/or functionally related systems in lower organisms can provide clues in the quest for the function of the primordial immunoglobulin system The study of the fusibility gene locus in Botryllus, a colonial tunicate, as well as of self-incompatibility systems in plants, has led to the suggestion that the vertebrate major histocompatibility complex, and thus perhaps the whole immunoglobulin superfamily, has derived from self-nonself recognition systems evolved to prevent self-fertilization in hermaphrodite organisms [203,204] 233 However, an alternative hypothesis is that the function of the primordial V unit derived from its propensity to self-associate [ 1871 Thus, the immunoglobulin superfamily may have evolved as a primitive, like-like recognition system Such a function is still clearly recognizable in the homophilic binding of NCAM, which is both documented in early embryogenesis and is conserved in phylogenesis, as well as in the interactions between immunoglobulin and immunoglobulin-like cellular receptors The interactions between TcR's and MHCiforeign antigens as well as between immunoglobulins and foreign antigens can be viewed as a progressively increasing divergence from the primordial function The hypothesis is strengthened by the suggestion that the tendency to establish symmetric interactions has been a major mechanism in driving the evolution of the family [201] Further studies will tell whether its predictory value can be verified Acknowledgements wish to thank P Delmastro-Galfre, C Milstein and M.S
