| Abstract | The antigen receptor of the T lymphocyte consists of two variable T-cell receptor chains (either TCR-alpha, TCR-beta or TCR-gamma, TCR-delta) noncovalently linked to four different invariant membrane proteins (CD3-gamma, CD3-delta, CD3-epsilon, and the CD3-zeta homodimer). The CD3 genes are expressed early in thymocyte development, preceding the rearrangement and expression of the T-cell receptor genes. Here we report the isolation and structural analysis of the human CD3-epsilon gene. The gene consisted of nine exons. Three exons, encoding the junction of leader peptide and mature protein, were extremely small (21, 15, and 18 base pairs, respectively). The murine gene contained only two such miniexons, the sequences of which were not homologous to those of the three human miniexons. But from comparisons of intron sequences the regions surrounding the human miniexons III and IV appeared to be closely related to those surrounding the murine miniexons III and IV. The most-3' miniexon in the human gene (IVa) had no murine counterpart and appeared not to duplicate any of the other miniexons. Sequence analysis of CD3-epsilon cDNA clones isolated from four independent libraries gave no evidence for alternative use of these miniexons. Like CD3-delta, the CD3-epsilon gene was transcribed from a weak, nontissue-specific, TATA-less promoter. Pulsed-field electrophoresis showed that the human CD3-epsilon gene was separated from the CD3-gamma, CD3-delta gene pair by at least 30 kilobases, but by no more than 300 kilobases. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
