| The mechanisms for establishing lymphocyte identity within the hematopoietic lineage and for generating the immense repertoire of antigen receptors are both reliant on gene accessibility. We provide here an annotated list of classic articles on chromatin accessibility and lymphocyte recombination; as a special treat we provide FREE online access to the original landmark papers published by Nature. We thank the following individuals for their help in choosing these classic papers: Fred Alt, Martin Gellert, Mike Krangel, Mike Lieber, Nancy Maizels, Raul Mostoslavsky, Kees Murre, Claude-Agnes Reynaud, Ellen Rothenberg, Steve Smale and Jean-Claude Weill; we extend our thanks to Ryan Thompson for aid in PDF creation.
