Abstract excerpt
Il4 and Il13, closely linked genes, are expressed monoallelically in TH2 cells. Four different approaches (RNA FISH, cultures from Il13T-Il4/Il13-G4 mice, cultures from heterozygous Il13-Il4 double knockout mice, and a highly selected set of BABL/c*CAST/Ei clones displaying strong Il4 allelic bias) were utilized to study monoallelic expression of Il4 and coexpression of Il4 and Il13 on the same chromosome. There...
