L-glutamic acid60-L-alanine30-L-tyrosine10 (GAT): A probe for regulatory mechanisms in antibody responses.
The synthetic random terpolymer of L-glutamic acid60-L-alanine30-L-tyrosine10 (GAT) has been used as a probe to investigate regulatory mechanisms in antibody responses in tissue culture systems. In this brief review, the mechanisms of H-2 linked Ir gene control of antibody responses to GAT and genetic restrictions governing Mphi-immune T cell interactions in antibody responses to GAT are summarized.
