Receptors, Antigen, T-Cell, gamma-delta MeSH Descriptor Data 2025


MeSH Heading
Receptors, Antigen, T-Cell, gamma-delta
Tree Number(s)
D12.776.543.750.705.816.824.830
Unique ID
D016692
RDF Unique Identifier
http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D016692
Scope Note
T-cell receptors composed of CD3-associated gamma and delta polypeptide chains and expressed primarily in CD4-/CD8- T-cells. The receptors appear to be preferentially located in epithelial sites and probably play a role in the recognition of bacterial antigens. The T-cell receptor gamma/delta chains are separate and not related to the gamma and delta chains which are subunits of CD3 (see ANTIGENS, CD3).
