MeSH Heading: T-Cell Antigen Receptor Specificity
Tree Number(s): G12.450.900
Unique ID: D037182
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D037182
Annotation: T-cell cross-reactivity goes here
Scope Note: The property of the T-CELL RECEPTOR which enables it to react with some antigens and not others. The specificity is derived from the structure of the receptor's variable region which has the ability to recognize certain antigens in conjunction with the MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX molecule.
