Description
The protein encoded by this gene is the CD3-gamma polypeptide, which together with CD3-epsilon, -delta and -zeta, and the T-cell receptor alpha/beta and gamma/delta heterodimers, forms the T-cell receptor-CD3 complex. This complex plays an important role in coupling antigen recognition to several intracellular signal-transduction pathways. The genes encoding the epsilon, gamma and delta polypeptides are located in the same cluster on chromosome 11. Defects in this gene are associated with T cell immunodeficiency.
Bio-activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Human CD3 gamma Fc Chimera is immobilized at 1.0 μg/mL, 100 μL/well, the concentration of Biotinylated Recombinant Human CD3E Fc Chimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is approximately 0.5-4 μg/mL.
