Description

Description: CD3epsilon, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell surface receptors, is comprised of five invariable chains ranging in size from 16-28kD and is closely associated with the T cell antigen receptor (TCR). It is expressed on all T cells of all mouse strains. CD3 plays a major role in signaling during antigen recognition, leading to T-cell activation. In the presence of Fc receptor-bearing accessory cells, soluble antibody can activate primed and naive T cell in vitro. It can also induce redirected lysis of specific target cells by CTL clones and it can block lysis of specific target cells by antigen-specific CTL's. Immobilized antibody can activate both normal T lymphocytes and cloned T cell lines. Under certain conditions, T cell activation by this antibody may result in apoptotic cell death (1-6).
