T-Cell Receptor

Source:http://linkedlifedata.com/resource/umls/id/C0034790

MSH: Molecules on the surface of T-lymphocytes that recognize and combine with antigens. The receptors are non-covalently associated with a complex of several polypeptides collectively called CD3 antigens (ANTIGENS, CD3). Recognition of foreign antigen and the major histocompatibility complex is accomplished by a single heterodimeric antigen-receptor structure, composed of either alpha-beta (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL, ALPHA-BETA) or gamma-delta (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL, GAMMA-DELTA) chains.,CSP: immunoglobulin like receptor associated with CD3 marker on T lymphocytes which binds specific antigen and thereby participates in T cell activation; recognition of foreign antigen and the major histocompatibility complex is accomplished by a single heterodimeric antigen receptor structure, composed of either alpha-beta or gamma-delta chains.,NCI: Heterodimeric antigen receptors present on the surface of T-cells. Two T-cell antigen receptors have been identified, consisting of heterodimeric 40-55 kD Ig-like alpha/b
