antígenos T3
Scope note: Complejo formado al menos por cinco polipéptidos de unión a la membrana de los linfocitos T maduros que se asocian de forma no covalente con otro y con el receptor del linfocito T (RECEPTORES DE ANTÍGENOS DE LOS LINFOCITOS T). El complejo CD3 incluye las cadenas (subunidades) gamma, delta, épsilon, zeta y eta. Cuando el antígeno se une al receptor del linfocito T, el complejo CD3 transduce las señales activadoras al citoplasma del linfocito T. Las cadenas (subunidades) gamma y delta del antígeno CD3 están separadas de las cadenas gamma/delta del receptor del linfocito T (CADENAS GAMMA-DELTA DE LOS RECEPTORES DE ANTÍGENOS DE LOS LINFOCITOS T) y no están relacionadas con ellas.

Scope note: Complex of at least five membrane-bound polypeptides in mature T-lymphocytes that are non-covalently associated with one another and with the T-cell receptor (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL). The CD3 complex includes the gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta, and eta chains (subunits). When antigen binds to the T-cell receptor, the CD3 complex transduces the activating signals to the cytoplasm of the T-cell. The CD3 gamma and delta chains (subunits) are separate from and not related to the gamma/delta chains of the T-cell receptor (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL, GAMMA-DELTA).
