Abstract excerpt
Because there are limited numbers of V gamma gene segments and most V gamma rearrangements occur within clusters of the J gamma-C gamma genes in mice, gamma-chains display limited diversity compared with other TCR chains. In this study, we examined the nucleotide sequences of the V gamma-J gamma genes expressed in the gamma delta T cells appearing at the inflamed sites after Salmonella infection in DBA/2 mice....
