(17) SF CD4+ cells from RA and non-RA arthritides expressed the Tac antigen much more frequently than corresponding CD8+ cells (54 and 58% versus 16 and 17%).
(18) A Tn5tac1 insertion just inside the 3' end of cysQ, with its isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside-inducible tac promoter pointed toward the cysQ promoter, resulted in auxotrophy only when isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside was present; this conditional phenotype was ascribed to collision between converging RNA polymerases or interaction between complementary antisense and cysQ mRNAs.
(19) In addition, a monoclonal antibody (moAb) against the IL2 receptor (IL2-R; anti-Tac) inhibited the spontaneous colony formation from T-CFC of both groups of patients.
(20) The artificial secretory molecule of the IL-2 receptor named "bottom-less" receptor was able to react with anti-Tac antibody and to bind IL-2.
