Assembly of the TCR/CD3 complex: CD3ε/δ and CD3ε/γ dimers associate indistinctly with both TCRα and TCRβ chains. Evidence for a double TCR heterodimer model
1 Jan 1998
Abstract excerpt
The TCR/CD3 complex is composed of six subunits which are expressed on the cell surface in a coordinate fashion after assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The TCR/CD3 complex is assembled after a series of pairwise interactions involving the formation of dimers of CD3 epsilon with either CD3 gamma or CD3 delta. These dimers assemble with TCR alpha and TCR beta chains, and finally, the CD3 zeta homodimer is...
