“…Western blot analysis, which was performed under reduced conditions, revealed a band of approximately 33 kDa, in accordance with the calculated molecular weight of the InsB 15-23 /b 2 m/CD3-z polypeptide product. However, it coincides with our previous work 31 showing two-way T cell activation mediated by the G9C8 TCR and the InsB 15-23 / b 2 m/CD3-z construct, as the G9TCR recognizes the construct and the triggering of the construct activates the transfected cell. Here we recapitulate this notion also for exogenous mRNA-driven expression.…”
