| Abstract | We have used T-cell receptor beta-chain transgenic mice to determine the effects of a limited T-cell receptor repertoire on major histocompatibility complex class I-restricted epitope selection during the course of an influenza virus infection. Analysis of T-cell hybridomas generated from wild-type and transgenic mice demonstrated that the viral epitope recognized depended on the available T-cell receptor repertoire. Wild-type T-cell hybridomas recognized epitopes derived from the nucleoprotein and basic polymerase molecules, whereas hybridomas generated from transgenic mice recognized epitopes derived from the nonstructural protein and the matrix protein. There was no overlap in specificity between the two panels of hybridomas. This reciprocal pattern of specificity was also apparent in cytoxicity assays with brochoalveolar lavage cells isolated from the lungs of influenza virus-infected mice. T-cell receptor usage in the transgenic hybridomas was very restricted, with only one V alpha element used for ech of the two viral epitopes recognized. In the case of the hybridomas reactive to the nonstructural protein, sequence analysis showed that they all expressed V alpha 4J alpha 32 chains associated with the same junctional amino acids (Leu-Leu) that were encoded by five different nucleotide sequences, indicating a strong selection for T-cell receptor usage. Taken together, these data demonstrate that the available T-cell receptor repertoire can have a profound effect on the immunodominance of class I-restricted epitopes during a viral infection. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
