The cytoplasmic domain of the T cell receptor ζ chain is sufficient to couple to receptor-associated signal transduction pathways

BA Irving, A Weiss - Cell, 1991 - cell.com
The function of the T cell antigen receptor (TM) invariant chains, CD3 y, S, E, and<, is poorly
understood. Evidence suggests that CD3 couples receptor ligand binding to intracellular …

E Ahn, K Araki, M Hashimoto, W Li… - Proceedings of the …, 2018 - National Acad Sciences
PD-1 (programmed cell death-1) is the central inhibitory receptor regulating CD8 T cell
exhaustion during chronic viral infection and cancer. Interestingly, PD-1 is also expressed …

Functional characterization of a signal transducing motif present in the T cell antigen receptor zeta chain.

BA Irving, AC Chan, A Weiss - The Journal of experimental medicine, 1993 - rupress.org

Thymocyte development in the absence of pre-T cell receptor extracellular immunoglobulin domains

BA Irving, FW Alt, N Killeen - Science, 1998 - science.org
Immature thymocytes express a pre–T cell receptor (pre-TCR) composed of the TCRβ chain
paired with pre-Tα. Signals from this receptor are essential for passage of thymocytes …
