Signaling Efficiency of the T Cell Receptor Controlled by a Single Amino Acid in the β Chain Constant Region
A single amino acid residue, Gln(136), located within the connecting peptide domain of Cβ controls the ability of the α/β TCR to transmit a full signal. TCRs in which this Cβ residue is mutated to Phe, the residue found in TCR-γ, are unresponsive to antigenic ligands. Interestingly, this Cβ residue...
