In the search for the genes encoding the alpha and beta chains of the T-cell receptor, Tonegawa et al. discovered a third class of rearranging T-cell specific genes. This finding led them to postulate the existence of additional forms of T-cell receptors. In this article, Frédéric Tribel and Thierry Hercend briefly discuss recent results, which may help in the delineation of human peripheral blood gamma delta+ subsets based on the molecular structure of this receptor.
在寻找编码T细胞受体α链和β链的基因过程中,利根川进等人发现了第三类重排的T细胞特异性基因。这一发现使他们推测存在其他形式的T细胞受体。在本文中,弗雷德里克·特里贝尔和蒂埃里·埃尔桑德简要讨论了近期的研究结果,这些结果可能有助于根据该受体的分子结构来划分人类外周血γδ +亚群。
