Class II MHC antigen processing in immune tolerance and inflammation.

abstract：:The human T-cell receptor gamma (TCRG) locus comprises 14 variable genes (TRGV), five joining segments (TRGJ), and two constant region genes (TRGC). The constant gamma 1 gene, TRGC1, consists of three exons, whereas the TRGC2 gene contains four or five exons due to the duplication or triplication of exon 2 and spans 9...
