Abstract excerpt

Inbred rat strains provide a rich source of genetic diversity in immunologically relevant genes. We have characterized the alleles of one of these genes, encoding the rat T-cell receptor C beta 1 chain, by Southern blots and nucleic acid sequencing. The Cb1 gene segments from DA and LEW rats disp...
