The DT40 cell-line has been extensively used to create deletion mutants, one of which lacks Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk). Btk is a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase important for B-lymphocyte maturation. It was previously shown that there are differences in gene expression between wild-type and Btk-deficient animals. Global gene expression profiling of the avian B-lymphoma DT40 cell-line was used as a model to differentiate among Btk knockout (KO) and Btk KO cells reconstituted with human Btk. Diffe ...[more]
