This activation process depends mainly on CD3 (Cluster of Differentiation 3), a multiunit protein complex that directly associates with the TCR. CD3 is composed of four polypeptides: ζ, γ, ε, and δ. Each of these polypeptides contains at least one immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) (2). Engagement of the TCR complex with foreign antigens induces tyrosine phosphorylation in the ITAM motifs and phosphorylated ITAMs function as docking sites for signaling molecules such as ZAP-70 and the p85 subunit of PI-3 kinase (3,4). TCR ligation also induces a conformational change in CD3ε, such that a proline region is exposed and then associates with the adaptor protein Nck (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCD3-epsilon; CD3E; CD3E antigen, epsilon polypeptide; CD3e antigen, epsilon polypeptide (TiT3 complex); CD3e molecule; CD3e molecule, epsilon (CD3-TCR complex); CD3epsilon; FLJ18683; IMD18; T-cell antigen receptor complex, epsilon subunit of T3; T-cell surface antigen T3\/Leu-4 epsilon chain; T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 epsilon chain; T3E; TCRE\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Mouse IgG2a kappa","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800332652713,"sku":"92511S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-92511s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
