Clone APA1/1 has been demonstrated to recognize a site on CD3&epsilon: that is exposed upon engagement of the T-Cell Receptor complex. Exposure of this neoepitope precedes CD3 phosphorylation and recruitment and activation of ZAP-70, which initiates the signaling cascade produced by T-cell activation. As such, clone APA1/1 provides the earliest known marker for T-Cell Receptor engagement, and thus T-cell activation.

Mature CD4(+) and CD8(+) T lymphocytes are believed to build and express essentially identical surface alphabeta T-cell receptor-CD3 (TCR.CD3) complexes. However, TCR.CD3 expression has been shown to be more impaired in CD8(+) cells than in CD4(+) cells when CD3gamma is
The T cell receptor for antigen (TCR) consists of two glycoproteins containing variable regions (TCR-alpha/beta or TCR-gamma/delta) which are expressed on the cell surface in association with at least four invariant proteins (CD3-gamma, -delta, -epsilon and -zeta). CD3-gamma and CD3-delta
How membrane receptors initiate signal transduction upon ligand binding is a matter of intense scrutiny. The T cell receptor complex (TCR-CD3) is composed of TCR alpha/beta ligand binding subunits bound to the CD3 subunits responsible for signal transduction. Although it

Assembly of the six-chain T cell antigen receptor-CD3 complex takes place by pairwise interactions. Thus, CD3-epsilon interacts with either CD3-gamma or CD3-delta, and these dimers then associate with the TCR heterodimer (alpha.beta or gamma.delta) and the CD3-zeta homodimer to constitute
The degree of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) binding to myosin-exposed apoptotic cells (MEACs) correlates with worse patient outcomes, suggesting a link to disease activity. Therefore, we studied MEAC formation and the effects of MEAC binding on
