Cloning and identification of two novel splice variants of human PD-L2.

Abstract excerpt

PD-L2, a newly identified member of B7 family, plays a role in down-regulating T cell responses. The common PD-L2 mRNA (type I) is the splicing product containing all 6 exons. We report here the identification of two human PD-L2 splice variants in activated leukocytes. One splice variant (type II) is generated through splicing out exon 3 encoding Ig constant-like domain; it retains all other regions without a...
