Structural and Biophysical Insights into the TCRαβ Complex in Chickens

Summary: In this work, chicken HPAIV H5N1 epitope-specific TCRαβ (ch-TCRαβ) was isolated and its structure was determined. The Cα domain of ch-TCRαβ does not exhibit the typical structure of human TCRαβ, and the DE loop extends outward, resulting in close proximity between the Cα domain of ch-TCRαβ...
