Abstract
Further mapping of the mouse T-cell factor specific for poly(Try,Glu)- polyD-LAla--polyLys is reported. It is shown to be a product of the I-A subregion of the H-2 complex by the use of antisera either raised specifically against or made specific, by absorption, for different regions of the H-2 complex. The factor cooperates across allogeneic barriers, e.g., when factor produced by one strian is combined with bone marrow cells of other H-2 incompatible strains.
