Use of Transgenic Mice with Human MHC Class 1 Gene (HLA-A2)

  • Chapter
Microenvironments in the Lymphoid System

Abstract

Studies of MHC restriction in T cell antigen recognition (1) suggest that the two sets of multigene families, i.e. MHC class 1 and 2 genes on the one hand and T cell antigen receptor genes on the other, evolved in parallel. The notion of Jerne (2) that germ-line v-genes encode combining sites of antibodies or T cell receptors which have specificities for all MHC alleles of the species almost predicted the MHC restriction found several years later (1).
