Abstract excerpt
A sensitive, highly resolvable, and quantitative method was designed to analyse the diversity of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified transcripts which possess length polymorphism. A reverse transcriptase-PCR technique was used to amplify rearranged T cell antigen receptor (TCR) transcripts isolated from human blood. Oligonucleotide primers specific for conserved TCR V and C region sequences were used in...
