  ABSTRACT  
 
Each T cell receptor (TCR) recognizes a peptide antigen bound to a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule via a clonotypic alphabeta heterodimeric structure (Ti) non-covalently associated with the monomorphic CD3 signaling components. A crystal structure of an alphabeta TCR-anti-TCR Fab complex shows an Fab fragment derived from the H57 monoclonal antibody (mAb), interacting with the elongated FG loop of the Cbeta domain, situated beneath the Vbeta domain. This loop, along with the partially exposed ABED beta sheet of Cbeta, and glycans attached to both Cbeta and Calpha domains, forms a cavity of sufficient size to accommodate a single non-glycosylated Ig domain such as the CD3epsilon ectodomain. That this asymmetrically localized site is embedded within the rigid constant domain module has implications for the mechanism of signal transduction in both TCR and pre-TCR complexes. Furthermore, quaternary structures of TCRs vary significantly even when they bind the same MHC molecule, as manifested by a unique twisting of the V module relative to the C module.

Figure 3.
Figure 3 Superposition of different TCRs defines substantial quaternary structural variations. -carbon trace comparing the two N15 TCRs in the asymmetric unit (left) as well as the N15A TCR with the 2C TCR (right). N15A (red), N15B (white) and 2C (green) were superimposed using C framework residues 144 -149, 158 -161, 172 -174, 192 -197 and 212 -215. The r.m.s. deviation for this C region is 0.19 Å between N15A and N15B, and 0.32 Å between N15A and 2C. The side view (bottom) shows the complete TCR heterodimers. The top view (top) shows only the overlay of the V modules for simplicity. The variation in quaternary structure between N15 and 2C is quantitated in Table II.
Figure 5.
Figure 5 N15 CDR3 residues involved in recognition of the VSV8/Kb antigen -MHC class I complex. The figure is shown as a GRASP (Nicholls et al., 1991) molecular surface representation, viewing the ligand binding surface of the TCR. The V domain is shown in blue-grey and the V domain is shown in pink. Individual CDR3 and residues, whose mutation to alanine results in 1000-fold reduction in sensitivity of T cell hybridoma transfectants to varying molar concentrations of VSV8 peptide pulsed onto R8 antigen presenting cells, are shown in red. The CDR3 Asn101 residue which reduces recognition 100 fold is shown in yellow and the CDR3 Glu105 residue, which has no detectable effect on recognition, is shown in green.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
