Rearranged Valpha13.1 JalphaNEW06 and Vbeta8.1 Jbeta1.2 were obtained from K-restricted CD8<+> cytotoxic T lymphocyte clone BC10 which recognizes an epitope located between residues 93-100 in the hepatitis B virus core/nucleocapsid (COR93). TCR sequences were cloned into TCR cassette expression vectors (pTalpha and pTbeta) and co-injected. (J:213364)
