Viable Lin(-) CD27(+) c-kit(Hi) Sca-1(Hi) GFP(+) cells recovered from heterozygous RAG1/GFP knockin mice progressed through previously defined stages of B, T, and NK cell lineage differentiation. In contrast to the GFP(-) cohort, there was minimal myeloid or erythroid potential in cells with an active RAG1 locus. Partial overlap with TdT(+) cells suggested that distinctive early lymphocyte characteristics are not...
