ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a heterodimeric T lymphocyte receptor subunit. The subunit consists of a signal peptide, variable, joining, constant, transmembrane, and cytoplasmic regions.
The structure, amino acid, and nucleotide sequence of the lymphocyte receptor subunit were determined using cDNA clones derived from a functional murine cytotoxic T lymphocyte clone. The genes corresponding to these cDNA are expressed and rearranged specifically in T cells and have significant sequence homologies to immunoglobulin V and C genes.
T cell receptor subunits may be produced from the cDNA clones. The protein molecules may be further used for the production of T-cell clone specific antibodies.
