We have isolated the cDNA encoding a binding protein to the sequence motif of the Immunoglobulin Sµ region by the southwestern method. The binding protein designated Sµbp-2 specifically binds to 5'-phos-phorylated single-stranded DNA containing 5'-G and GGGG stretches. The amlno acid sequence deduced from the the cDNA sequence showed that the Sµbp-2 belongs to the putative hellcase superfamlly which is involved in replication, recombination and repair. Expression of Sµbp-2 mRNA is ubiquitous and augmented In spleen cells stimulated with llpopolysaccharide and interteukln 4 which also Induce class switching. The Sµbp-2 gene Is conserved among vertebrates. Possible Involvement of Sµbp-2 in class switching is discussed.
