Abstract excerpt
To ascertain how the actual repertoire of T cell receptors (TCRs) deviates from the theoretical, we have generated a large number of junctional region sequences from TCRs carrying the V beta 17 variable region. The greater than 600 sequences analyzed represent transcripts from nine different cell populations, permitting several comparisons: transcripts from an expressed vs. a non-expressed V beta 17 allele, those...
