Abstract excerpt
Allelic exclusion of V(beta)-to-DJ(beta) recombination depends on asynchronous rearrangement of alleles of the gene encoding T cell receptor beta in double-negative thymocytes and feedback inhibition that is maintained in double-positive thymocytes. Feedback is thought to be enforced through downregulation of V(beta) accessibility. In an attempt to override this negative regulation, we introduced the enhancer of...
