Faithful expression of the human 5q31 cytokine cluster in transgenic mice.
Published in The Journal of Immunology
Interleukins -4, -5, and -13, cardinal cytokines produced by Th2 cells, are coordinately expressed and clustered in 150-kb syntenic regions on mouse chromosome 11 and human chromosome 5q31. We analyzed two sets of human yeast artificial chromosome transgenic mice that contained the 5q31 cytokines to assess whether conserved sequences required for t...
