Description

The T cell receptor or TCR is a molecule found on the surface of T lymphocytes (or T cells) that is, in general, responsible for recognizing antigens bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules.

The TCR is composed of two different protein chains (that is, it is a heterodimer). In 95% of T cells, this consists of an alpha (α) chain (TCRA gene) and beta (β) chain (TCRB gene), whereas in 5% of T cells this consists of gamma (γ) chain (TCRG gene) and delta (δ) chain (TCRD gene).

When the TCR engages with antigen and MHC, this activates the T lymphocyte through a series of biochemical events mediated by associated enzymes, co-receptors, specialized accessory molecules and activated or released transcription factors.
