    Two variants of the AKR thymoma BW5147 have been isolated which can no longer express functional TCR alpha- and beta-chains. By generating hybridomas with these variant fusion lines, TCR of any normal T lymphocyte, including TCR-gamma/delta, can be studied at a clonal level, without interference of the BW5147-derived receptor chains. In this study one of the variants has been useful in identifying the reactivity to allogeneic MHC Ag of BW5147 itself.
