Human DNA sequences related to murine endogenous retroviral superantigens and their expression in Sjogren's syndrome

2001-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The project described in this thesis was undertaken to identify human DNA sequences related to the MMTV 3'LTR gene (vSag) that encodes endogenous superantigens in mice. Using sequence specific PCR primers and murine probes specific for the first and second conserved region of murine vSag, six human clones have been isolated from a DNA library. These human clones have been characterised through a process of hybridi...
