The regulation of CD5 expression in murine T cells.
BMC Mol Biol. 2001: 5
CD5 is a pan-T cell surface marker that is also present on a subset of B cells, B-1a cells. Functional and developmental subsets of T cells express characteristic CD5 levels that vary over roughly a 30-fold range. Previous investigators have cloned a 1.7 Kb fragment containing the CD5 promoter and showed that it can confer similar lymphocyte-specific expression pattern as observed for endogenous CD5 expression.
