TRIFUNCTIONAL T CELL-ANTIGEN COUPLER AND METHODS AND USES THEREOF

摘要

A trifunctional molecule comprising a target-specific ligand, a ligand that binds a protein associated with the TCR complex and a T cell receptor signaling domain polypeptide is provided. Engineering T cells with this novel receptor engenders antigen specific activation of numerous T cell functions, including cytokine production, degranulation and cytolysis.
