Porcine T-cell receptor beta-chain: a genomic sequence covering Dbeta1.1 to Cbeta2 gene segments and the diversity of cDNA expressed in piglets including novel alternative splicing products.

Abstract excerpt

Porcine TCRbeta-chain cDNA clones were isolated from thymic and peripheral blood lymphocytes of piglets. Using these nucleotide sequences, a genomic 18kbp sequence stretch covering Dbeta1 to Cbeta2 gene segments was identified, which revealed that the porcine TCRbeta-chain locus consists of two sets of Dbeta-Jbeta-Cbeta gene groups with each set having a Dbeta gene segment, seven Jbeta gene segments and a down...
