Abstract excerpt
Allelic exclusion of T cell receptor (TCR) genes is incomplete: a significant percentage (10-30%) of normal human and mouse peripheral T cells express two surface TCR alpha chains, and a small percentage of peripheral human T cells have been reported to express two surface TCR beta chains. A proportion of thymocytes in TCR transgenic mice rearrange endogenous T cell receptor genes, and peripheral T cells with two...
