Abstract excerpt
The T-cell receptor (TCR) is composed of two glycoproteins (alpha and beta or gamma and delta) associated with four invariant polypeptides (CD3-gamma, delta, epsilon and zeta). The majority of TCR/CD3 complexes contain six polypeptide chains, and although there is some flexibility in the complex...
