To elucidate the role of the CD3 eta subunit of the T cell receptor (TCR) in thymic development, a CD3 eta -/- mouse was generated by gene targeting. Insertion of a neomycin resistance gene into exon 9 of the CD3 zeta/eta/phi locus disrupted expression of CD3 eta and CD3 phi without affecting the expression of CD3 zeta. Little difference was observed between wild type and CD3 eta -/- mice with regard to cellularity or subset composition in thymus and peripheral lymphoid organs. Furthermore, neither alloproliferative responses nor cytotoxic T lymphocyte generation and effector function was affected by the mutation. The effect of the CD3 eta -/- mutation on thymic selection was examined by crossing the CD3 eta knockout animals with anti-HY TCR transgenic animals: the absence of the CD3 eta subunit altered neither positive nor negative selection. Thus, CD3 eta is not required for thymic selection. Of note, the birth rate of the CD3 eta -/- animals was significantly lower than that of wild type or heterozygous animals (P = 0.041-0.002). This unexpected result is probably the consequence of an alteration in mRNA expression of the Oct-1 nuclear transcription factor in CD3 eta -/- animals. The CD3 zeta/eta/phi locus partially overlaps the gene encoding Oct-1 whose transcription is dysregulated by the CD3 eta -/- mutation. Our results clearly underscore the value of characterizing all products of a genetic locus disrupted by gene targeting.
