Abstract excerpt
The extensive range of specificities of T-cell receptors is generated, as for immunoglobulins, by rearrangement of genetic information. Much valuable information about rearrangement processes has been inferred by comparing DNA from (monoclonal) lymphoid lines with germ-line DNA and, for B cells, from rearrangements in some Abelson murine leukaemia virus-transformed cell lines. However, because it is difficult to...
