Abstract excerpt
The IL-7R plays an essential role in gammadelta T cell development by inducing V-J recombination of the TCRgamma locus through STAT5. Although tyrosine residues in the intracellular domain of the mouse IL-7R alpha-chain (IL-7Ralpha) have been implicated in STAT5 activation, it is still unknown whether they are essential for gammadelta T cell development. In this study, we showed that those IL-7Ralpha tyrosine...
