Abstract
A modification of the polymerase chain reaction has been used to establish the fact that a collection of Staphylococcus aureus toxins are "superantigens," each of which interacts with the T-cell .alpha..beta. receptor of human T cells by means of a specific set of V.beta. elements.This publication has 39 references indexed in Scilit:
