Description

Description: T cell receptor (TCR) is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha and a beta chain (TCR a/b) or a g and a d chain (TCR g/d). TCR g/d belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, which is involved in the recognition of certain bacterial and tumor antigens bound to MHC class I. g/d TCR associates with CD3 and is expressed on a T cell subset found in the thymus, the intestinal epithelium, and the peripheral lymphoid tissues and peritoneum. Most g/d T cells are CD4-/CD8- although some are CD8+. T cells expressing the g/d TCR have been shown to play a role in oral tolerance, tumor-associated tolerance, and autoimmune disease. It has been reported that g/d T cells also play a principal role in antigen presentation.
