Increased frequency of 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-specific, H-2b-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte precursors in transgenic mice expressing a T cell receptor beta chain gene from an H-2b-restricted, TNP-specific cytolytic T cell clone.

Abstract excerpt

T cell antigen receptors (TcR) expressing V alpha 10/J alpha BBM142 genes in association with beta chains containing J beta 2.6 elements were found to be predominant among 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-specific, H-2b-restricted cytolytic T cell lines (CTL). To assess the relative contribution of the TcR beta chain to the TNP specificity as well as to the selection of the respective TcR alpha chain elements we...
