โœฆ Synopsis


Lymphocytes from different strains vary in their expression of antigenic determinants encoded by the Qa1 locus. Thus, a lower percentage of cells from strains bearing H-2Dk are lysed in antibody-mediated cytotoxic tests. These cells fail to completely absorb anti-Qa1 activity from antisera. The unexpressed determinants are present in unactivated cells when subcellular fractions are tested and are detectable on the membrane of mitogen-activated lymphocytes. The gene(s) controlling this phenomenon are dominant and map to a region between H-2S and Tla.

We examined the regulation of cell surface expression of the Qa-1 alloantigens using a panel of monoclonal anti-Qa-1 cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (mCTL) lines. In contrast to previous reports of tissue-specific expression, we found that Qa-1 was widely expressed, resembling the prototypical class I H-2K/D

Four different types of crosses have been used to establish the order of the four genes in the qa gene cluster of Neurospora crassa, which encode the following proteins involved in the inducible catabolism of quinic acid: a regulatory (activator) protein (qa-1), catabolic dehydroquinase (qa-2), quin

Using monoclonal antibodies, we have analysed the distribution of three recently described Qa antigenic determinants (Qa-m7, Qa-m8 and Qa-m9) on murine clonable hemopoietic progenitor cells and spleen colony-forming units (CFU-S). Cytotoxicity experiments showed that Qa-m7 was expressed on almost al
