High-frequency mutagenesis of human cells and characterization of a mutant unresponsive to both alpha and gamma interferons.

abstract：:Double-positive (DP) thymocytes respond to intrathymic T-cell receptor (TCR) signals by undergoing positive selection and lineage differentiation into single-positive (SP) mature cells. Concomitant with these well-characterized events is the acquisition of a mature T-cell gene expression program characterized by the i...
