Study of TCRs
Early studies of Ag response B cells/Ab
TCRs as an Ig/ IgT

Comparing BCRs vs. TCRs
BCRs Soluble Ags Non MHC restricted
TCRs Membrane bound Ags MHC restricted (self)
Both are Ag specific

TCR and BCR Structural Comparison
BCR “Dimer of dimers” (two heterodimers)
Two dimers of one heavy/one light Varying number of domains. For IgG 4 and
2 ;IgM 5 and 2 Constant and variable domains
Bivalent for Ag binding CDRs in Fab

TCR and BCR Structural Comparison
TCR Heterodimer
One alpha/one beta Two domains each Constant and variable domains
Monovalent for Ag Hypervariable regions in V domains

TCR Complex Includes the TCR plus CD3 CD3
Contains six chains One homodimer Two different heterodimers
Has many ITAMs Function? Significance?
Essential for TCR expression and post Ag recognition signal transduction
Intra membrane oppositely charged residues

Two Types of TCRs
Predominantly alpha/beta Also see gamma/delta
Gamma/delta TCR cells are less discriminating
Respond to phospholipid Ags May be “first responders”

TCR Genetic Diversity
TCR gene expression Seen in T cells only
Alpha chain encoded by V and J segments (~ to Ig light chains)
Beta chain encoded by V, D and J segments (~ to Ig heavy chains)
Combinatorial joining occurs resulting in at least 3 million combinations
No somatic mutation contributing to diversity

TCR Accessory Molecules
Act as co-receptors CD4
Monomer; four domains CD8
Heterodimer; one domain each CD2
Each accessory molecule reacts with a ligand on the APC or target cell

TCR Binding vs. BCR Binding
TCR binding with Ag Less specific than BCR Less tightly bound But more adhesion molecules Greater number of ITAMs
