PCR indicates polymerase chain reaction; TCR-γ, T-cell receptor-γ.

F3-150

The number of clones with identical TCR-γ chain gene sequence/total number of clones sequenced.

F3-151

The number of clones with TCR-γ chain gene sequence identical to the dominant sequence obtained from the whole section PCR/total number of clones sequenced.
