The absence of an expansion of Vγ2Vδ2+ T cells in SIVmac-BCG-coinfected macaques was not due to deletions in the TCR repertoire. Multiple CDR3 lengths could be identified in Vδ2+ T cells from the SIVmac-infected monkeys after BCG coinfection. Shown on the right are the CDR3 profiles in Vδ2+ T cells following BCG infection of the control monkeys. The numbers of nucleotides in the different CDR3 lengths were determined in control experiments (46) and are expressed as predicted numbers of amino acids. A short line at the bottom of each histogram represents the predicted CDR3 length of 13 amino acids.
