Mr. Pecoraro et al., STABLE EXPRESSION OF THE CDNA-ENCODING THE FELINE CD8-ALPHA GENE, Journal of veterinary medical science, 56(5), 1994, pp. 1001-1003
The stable expression of the alpha chain of the feline cytotoxic T cel
l differentiation antigen (fCD8alpha) on Crandell feline kidney cells
(CRFK) was carried out by using an expression vector which contains th
e Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat and a neo resistant gene. Af
ter three rounds of cloning under G418 selection for over two months,
the expression of the feline polypeptide was detected by human monoclo
nal antibody OKT8.
