title: Characterization of a late activation antigen defined by monoclonal antibodies of cluster BoWC8 (TC23).
abstract: Three monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), P13 (#90), IL-A78 (#76) and IL-A79 (#77), defined a new cluster, called BoWC8. The antigen defined by these mAbs is a molecule of 160 kDa under reducing conditions, and is expressed on lymphocytes late (6 days) after activation. The molecule can be expressed on multiplying T cells, but not on B cells.
