| Abstract | Immature thymocytes express clonotype-independent CD3 complexes that, when engaged by anti-CD3 antibodies, can signal CD4-CD8- thymocytes to differentiate into CD4+CD8+ cells. Clonotype-independent CD3 complexes consist of CD3 components associated with an unknown 90 kDa surface protein. We now report the surprising finding that this 90 kDa surface protein is the molecular chaperone calnexin, an integral membrane protein previously thought to reside only in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). We found that calnexin-CD3 complexes escaping to the cell surface utilize interchain associations distinct from those utilized by calnexin-CD3 complexes remaining within the ER. Specifically, we demonstrate that carbohydrate-mediated luminal domain interactions that are necessary for formation of most internal calnexin-CD3 complexes destined to be expressed on the cell surface, and we provide evidence that cytoplasmic domain interactions between calnexin and CD3 epsilon chains mask calnexin's ER retention signal, permitting calnexin and associated proteins to escape ER retention. Thus, the present study demonstrates that partial T cell antigen receptor complexes can escape the ER of immature thymocytes in association with their molecular chaperone to be expressed at low levels on the cell surface where they may function as a signaling complex to regulate thymocyte maturation. |

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.
