Abstract excerpt
Gamma irradiation followed by antibody and complement selection was used to isolate a human B-lymphoblastoid cell line that no longer expresses HLA-DR molecules on its cell surface. Cell surface expression in the mutant (HMy2.DRN) was restored by transfecting a wildtype DRA but not a DRB cDNA, suggesting that a structural mutation in the DRA mRNA or protein was responsible for the lack of cell surface expression....
