Research Abstract |
The monoclonal antibody 7G3 against the framework of porcine T-cell receptor gamma chain was established. When compared with previously established other antibody against the same molecule, it was found 7G3 worked better than others in terms of strength of reactivity on cells and tissue sections as well as stability in immunobiochemical analysis. In order to understand the mechanism involved in porcine TCR gene editing, TCR Ja chain was analyzed and it was found that usage of Ja gene segment was very similar to that of human system. In addition, variability of CDR3 region of porcine TCR alpha cDNA was investigated and it was found that average length was 9.35 (average length in human system is 10.2) and that at least 33 porcine TCR alpha genes were identified.
