T-cell receptor beta-chain binding to enterotoxin superantigens.

Abstract excerpt

The last few years have seen an enormous jump in our knowledge and understanding of T-cell activation by superantigens. Clearly, a great number of infectious and parasitic organisms utilize superantigens as part of a strategy to evade the immune response of their host. The ability to modulate superantigen effects will give us new means to fight infections, and the knowledge of T-cell activation that we have...
