Abstract excerpt
Deletion of the TCRbeta transcriptional enhancer (Ebeta) results in nearly complete inhibition of V(D)J recombination at the TCRbeta locus and a block in alpha beta T cell development. This result, along with previous work from many laboratories, has led to the hypothesis that transcriptional enhancers affect V(D)J recombination by regulating the accessibility of the locus to the recombinase. Here we test this...
