Research Abstract |
Biochemical and immunological experiments were carried out to elucidate roles of ITAG1, a novel molecule regulated by PD-1 during immune tolerance induction. I found that ITAG1 interacted with known transcriptional factor and chromatin regulators, suggesting its role in T cell differentiation. In contrast, ITAG1 knockout mice showed only minor defect, suggesting some compensatory mechanism in the knockout mice.
