Abstract excerpt
We have previously shown that a tyrosine to leucine replacement in the transmembrane region of T cell receptor (TCR)-beta results in a deficient induction of CD95-L and apoptosis upon TCR triggering in a transfected T cell line. By contrast, interleukin (IL)-2 production and the expression of CD25 and CD69 were normally induced. Since the mutation in TCR-beta also resulted in impaired association of CD3-zeta, it...
