A non-conserved amino acid variant regulates differential signalling between human and mouse CD28

A non-conserved amino acid variant regulates differential signalling between human and mouse CD28

CD28 transmits co-stimulatory signals for the activation of both mouse and human T cells, but in vivo hyperactivation of CD28 has opposite effects on system immunity. Here, the authors show that a single amino acid difference between mouse and human CD28 dictates this function distinction via differ...
