Allelic exclusion is a vital mechanism for the generation of monospecificity to foreign Ags in B and T lymphocytes. In this study, we developed a high-throughput barcoded method to simultaneously analyze the VDJ recombination status of both mouse TCR-b alleles in hundreds of single cells using next-generation sequencing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
