• response of uninfected transgenic Mlsa spleen cells to LCMV is reduced ~3-fold
• numbers of double-positive thymocytes and CD8+ thymocytes are drastically reduced in transgenic mice
• numbers of CD4+CD8+ thymocytes are drastically reduced in LCMV-tolerant (carrier) transgenic mice
• number of CD8+ T cells in spleens of transgenic Mlsa mice is reduced 4-fold compared to uninfected transgenic Mlsb but ~4-fold higher than LCMV-infected Mlsb mice
• lysis of LCMV-infected target cells is decreased ~3-fold in uninfected transgenic mice positive for mixed-lymphocyte stimulatory (Mlsa) antigen compared to transgenic mice positive for Mlsb antigen

• T cells expressing the transgene preferentially develop into CD8+ peripheral T cells
• there is only minimal rearrangement of endogenous TCRalpha chains needed in double-positive thymocytes to express a transgenic TCR, so that mice have very few CD4 single-positive thymocytes or CD4+ peripheral T cells
• very few CD4+T cells are found in the thymus or periphery
