CD82, member of the tetra-span-transmembrane protein family, is a costimulatory protein for T cell activation.

Abstract excerpt

It is now well documented that full activation of T cells requires a two-signal triggering that can be mimicked, in the absence of accessory cells, by co-immobilization of mAbs directed to stimulatory/accessory molecules (CD2, CD3, CD28, adhesion molecules, etc.). In this report, we describe that engagement of CD82 can delivery such a costimulatory signal for full activation of the human T cell line Jurkat,...
