Journal ArticleDOI
MHC class I expression in mice lacking the proteasome subunit LMP-7
Fehling Hj,Wojciech Swat,Catherine Laplace,Ralf Kühn,Klaus Rajewsky,Urs Müller,H von Boehmer +6 more
TL;DR: Mice with a targeted deletion of the gene encoding LMP-7 have reduced levels of MHC class I cell-surface expression and present the endogenous antigen HY inefficiently; addition of peptides to splenocytes deficient in L MP-7 restores wild-type class I expression levels, suggesting that LMP -7 functions as an integral part of the peptide supply machinery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crucial role of the pre-T-cell receptor alpha gene in development of alpha beta but not gamma delta T cells.
TL;DR: It is shown that αβ, but not γδ, cell development is severely hampered in pre-T-cell-receptor α-gene-deficient mice, which establishes a crucial role for the pre- T-cell receptor in early thymocyte development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis and expression of a cloned pre-T cell receptor gene.
Claude Saint-Ruf,Katharina Ungewiss,Marcus Groettrup,Ludovica Bruno,Fehling Hj,H von Boehmer +5 more
TL;DR: The pre-TCR alpha (pT alpha) as mentioned in this paper is a type I transmembrane protein whose cytoplasmic tail contains two potential phosphorylation sites and a Src homology 3 (SH3)-domain binding sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure and function of the pre-t cell receptor
von Boehmer H,Fehling Hj +1 more
TL;DR: Experiments in pT alpha gene-deficient mice show that the pre-TCR has a crucial role in maturation as well as allelic exclusion of alpha beta T cells but is not required for the development of gamma delta-expressing cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracing lymphopoiesis with the aid of a pTalpha-controlled reporter gene.
Fotini Gounari,Iannis Aifantis,Colin Martin,Fehling Hj,Sonja Hoeflinger,Philip Leder,Harald von Boehmer,Boris Reizis +7 more
TL;DR: The transgenic reporter mouse strain, which expressed the human CD25 (hCD25) surface marker as a reporter under the control of the pre-T cell receptor α(pTα) promoter, was used to identify lymphoid precursors that expressed pTα intracellularly.
