CD87, is a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol-linked receptor which serves to localize and enhance the proteolytic activity of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA). The, uPA/uPAR interaction also initiates signal transduction responses resulting in activation of protein tyrosine kinases, gene expression, cell...

Cytomegalovirus is an enveloped double stranded DNA virus which in humans (HCMV) is commonly known as human Herpes virus 5 (HHV-5). Glycoprotein B (gB) is the main antigenic protein within the envelope of HCMV. It is required for HCMV mediated membrane fusion along with the gH/gL complex. The unprocessed precursor...

T cell receptor (TCR) is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha and a beta chain (TCR a/b) or a gamma and a delta chain (TCR g/d). TCR-b is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and a component of the CD3/TCR complex (along with TCR-a). It is expressed on a/b TCR-bearing T cells and thymocytes. The CD3/TCR...
