description | This allele is refered to as Tag-TCR2 by the authors. Tag-TCR2 animals carry multiple copies of both Tcra and Tcrb constructs integrated into the same locus. |
molecularNote | Two transgene constructs were used in the generation of this allele. One construct consists of a Tcra sequence encoding the Valpha2JalphaMT1-27 rearrangement, 6 kb of 5' flanking sequence, 3.8 kb of 3' flanking sequence, and a neomycin resistance gene. The other construct consists of a Tcrb sequence encoding the Vbeta8.3DJbeta2.4 rearrangement, 5.1 kb of 5' flanking sequence, 0.4 kb of 3' flanking sequence, and a neomycin resistance gene. This transgenic line carries multiple copies of both Tcra and Tcrb constructs cointegrated at one locus. |
