LAG-3, a novel lymphocyte activation gene closely related to CD4.
1 May 1990
Abstract excerpt
We have identified a novel human gene of the Ig superfamily, designated LAG-3. Expression of this gene is undetectable in resting PBL, while it is found (a 2-kb message) in activated T and NK cells. The LAG-3 gene includes eight exons; the corresponding cDNA encodes a 498-amino acid membrane protein with four extracellular IgSF domains. The first one belongs to the V-SET; it is particular since it includes an...
