• 43% of CD8+ T cells co-express CD4
• this percentage is similar to the 46% of CD8+ T cells that have excised the floxed CD4 silencer element as based on southern analysis

immune system
• CD4 silencing is defective in these mice leading to expression of CD4 on cytotoxic T cells that normally only express CD8
• these peripheral double positive T cells have the cytotoxic effector functions of CD8+ T cells
• all peripheral CD8+ T cells co-express CD4 leading to a large increase in double positive numbers in the spleen
