Limiting dilution analysis of precursor potential of TCR-transduced DN3 cells

αβ-Lineage*
γδ-Lineage*
TCR/stromal cell 1/freq (95% C.L.) 1/freq. (95% C.L.)
TCR-β/OP9-DL4 1.05 (0.73–1.52) Nil N/A
TCR-β/B/c-DL4 1.02 (0.72–1.46) Nil N/A
TCR-γδ/OP9-DL4 116.23 (49.97–270.39) 1.35 (0.95–1.91)
TCR-γδ/B/c-DL4 47.56 (26.81–84.35) 3.38 (2.40–4.77)
TCR(β+γδ)/OP9-DL4 353.00 (84.36–1,477.09) 1.39 (0.98–1.97)
TCR(β+γδ)/B/c-DL4 233.99 (72.38–756.47) 1.67 (1.18–2.36)

αβ-Lineage outcome was determined by the detection of CD4 and CD8 expressing cells, with >50 cells per well analyzed. γδ-Lineage outcome was determined by the presence of CD4 and CD8 DN cells that expressed high levels of CD73, with >30 cells per well analyzed. C.L., confidence limits for P ≤ 0.05; N/A, not applicable. Limiting dilution analyses coculture conditions and TCR used for transductions of Rag2−/− DN3 cells are indicated in SI Methods. Numbers in bold represent frequencies of respective lineage outcomes for KN6-transduced DN3s exposed to weak ligand in the absence and presence of TCR-β, respectively.
