TL;DR: The data illustrated here show that the multiplex PCR technique is useful for screening TCRBV usage and can be easily adapted for analysis of clonal composition in T-cell populations.
Abstract: The selection of various T-cell receptor (TCR) gene families and complex rearrangements during intra-thymic differentiation provide the basis for the expression of antigen specificity by mature T cells. TCR beta variable (TCRBV) transcripts can be identified by RT-PCR, but multiple reactions are required to detect all genes of the TCRBV subfamilies. We describe here a multiplex PCR method that amplifies 46 functional genes comparing 23 TCRBV families in 5 reactions where each reaction contains 4 to 7 specific primers together with a single fluorescence-tagged TCR beta constant region primer. Between 8 and 10 distinct subtypes within each of the 23 TCRBV families can be identified by analysis of the CDR3 length. Multiplex PCR products isolated from agarose gels can be subjected to direct sequencing for confirmation and definitive clonotyping if necessary. The data illustrated here show that the multiplex PCR technique is useful for screening TCRBV usage and can be easily adapted for analysis of clonal composition in T-cell populations.

TL;DR: It is proposed that AFLP, REP-PCR, Box- PCR and ribotyping techniques can all be used for discriminating O157:H7 isolates and are preferred for large-scale screening because of the speed and ease of the methods.

TL;DR: A new chemical method for carboxy- terminal (C-terminal) protein sequencing has been developed and has been successfully used to sequence 5 residues of standard proteins and 5 to 10 residues of synthetic peptides at low nanomole levels.
