DCLRE1C and infection: The transcripts for lymphocyte associated artemis-like protein, encoded by the DNA cross-link repair 1C gene (DCLRE1c), known to be involved in V(D)J recombination for both B cell antibody genes and T cell receptor genes (20), was downregulated during infection, and the T-cell receptor (TCR) Fcγ gene decreased (Figure 4B).
