Comparison of CDR3 length analysis in MZ twin pairs in whom a similar pattern was observed in the CD8 + T cells of both members of the pair

Note that two dominant bands corresponding to CDR3 lengths of 10 and 12 amino acids are seen in twin 5K. The dominant bands seen in both members of twin sets 2 and 6 also correspond to a CDR3 length of 10 amino acids. The CDR3 length is designated according to previously published conventions (15, 16).
