Abstract:We have compared by functional assays the relative preference among Ia molecules for their ability to present tyrosine-azobenzenearsonate (ABA-Tyr) to T cells. Immunization of B10.BR mice (IAk, IEk) with ABA-Tyr resulted in the induction of IAk-restricted T cells only. Immunization of B10.A(5R) mice (IAb, IEb/k) gave only IEb/k-restricted T cell clones even though IAb-restricted responses could be induced in C57BL/6 mice (IAb). These results indicated that IAk was preferred over IEk and IEb/k was preferred ove… Show more
