Comparison of thymocyte development in normal and invariant chain-deficient mice provides evidence that maturation-related changes in TCR and co-receptor levels play a critical role in cell fate.
Cells of invariant chain-deficient mice show a substantial decrease in cell surface MHC class II protein expression, as well as a change in the occupancy of the expressed class II molecules. Taking advantage of recent advances in phenotypic identification of transitional populations of developing th...
