Abstract
An antiserum raised in BALB/c AnN mice against selected CAL.20 T cells reacts with a cell surface antigen in virgin animals that is found on 25% of mature thymocytes and Lyt-2-bearing T cells, but not on prothymocytes, Lyt-1 T cells or B cells. The antigen is restricted to strains carrying the Ig-1d or Ig-1e heavy chain allotype haplotypes. It is expressed in F1 mice. The antiserum blocks the binding of suppressor T cells to the cross-reacting idiotype for arsonate while reagents specific for Fab, Fc or Ig were ineffective. We suggest that the antigen described represents a determinant on the product of a new locus coding for a heavy chain-linked polypeptide found on a subpopulation of T cells.
