Some lessons from the systematic production and structural analysis of soluble (alpha)(beta) T-cell receptors.
T-cell receptors (TCRs) are membrane proteins which recognize antigens with high specificity forming the basis of the cellular immune response. The study of these receptors has been limited by the challenges in expressing sufficient quantities of stable soluble protein. Here we report our systematic...
