| Research Abstract |
Our bodies are protected from foreign bodies with sophisticated immune system. Establishment of acquired immune system should be highly regulated. Because destruction of this process means that ourselves might be exposed to attack from our immune cells. It is very important to understand how suitable T cells are selected to develop. In this study, I revealed how the transcription factor, that is essential for this process, regulates downstream genes to achieve it.
