The results implicate that the nucleotide sequence of the intervening sequence is under selective pressure, possibly to maintain a secondary structure of the nuclear RNA to be spliced, and implicates that the class of the immunoglobulinheavy chain genes diverged after the heavy chain genes established the multi-domain structure.

The lack of homology between this C alpha sequence and sequences reported for the C gamma 1 and C gamma 2b switch sites suggests that heavy chain switching is mediated by class-specific recognition sequences and, presumably, class- specific regulatory mechanisms.
