Abstract

Guinea pig 7S immunoglobulins (gamma(1) and gamma(2)) consist of two groups of molecules (K and L) bearing different types of L chains (kappa and lambda). Approximately one-third of the molecules in normal guinea pig gamma(2)-globulin bear the lambda- type of L chains, and all or most of the others bear kappa-chains. kappa- and lambda-chains have similar molecular weights.
