Abstract excerpt
The BALB/c-derived mouse B cell lymphoma line, 2PK3, expresses mixed isotype E alpha dA beta d and classical I-E class II molecules on its surface, but normal surface I-A expression is not detectable. Northern blot analysis showed comparable amounts of A alpha mRNA in 2PK3 as compared to another Iad expressing B cell lymphoma, A20, which predominantly expresses I-A and I-E. Sequence analysis of 2PK3 A alpha cDNA...
