After cDNA generation, three parallel PCR reactions are performed to amplify the heavy chain variable region (light blue) and either the Kappa (light green) or Lambda (pink) variable region. Upon verification by sequencing, the variable regions (V) are cloned into plasmids encoding the constant part (C) of the respective antibody chain (dark blue: heavy constant part; dark green: Kappa light constant part; purple: Lambda light constant part). See Fig 2 for a comprehensive overview. For an overview on B-cell receptor and antibody variability, refer to Fig 1 by Khatri et al. [ 51 ] and Fig 1 by Mikocziova et al. [ 52 ]. (DOCX)
