Primitive Teratocarcinoma Cells Express a Differentiation Antigen Specified by a Gene at the T-Locus in the Mouse

PMCID: PMC388104  PMID: 4522792

Abstract

A cell-surface antigen common to mouse primitive teratocarcinoma cells, morulae, and sperm has been shown by serological methods to be specified by a wild-type T-locus gene whose mutant form is lethal in homozygotes at the morula stage.

Keywords: quantitative absorption, cytotoxicity test, embryonic antigen, morula, t12
