Lyt-2-/Lyt 3- variants of a cloned cytolytic T cell line lack an antigen receptor functional in cytolysis.

Abstract: Detailed analysis of cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL)1 at the molecular level has been hampered by the cellular heterogeneity intrinsic to most model systems studied. The development of cloned lines (1, 2) of CTL facilitates both biochemical (3) and genetic (this report) analyses of function.CTL have been characterized by a distinctive cell surface antigenic profile that includes Thy-1, Lyt-2, and Lyt-3 (4). Several recent studies using alloantisera indicate that antibodies reactive with either Lyt-2 or Lyt-3, or… Show more

“…It consists of two subunits that can associate as homodimers and heterodimers: the ␣ subunit, which has a C-terminal valine; and the ␤ subunit, which is devoid of this signal (52). CD8␣␤ is the main functional co-receptor, although CD8␣␣ is also expressed at the cell surface and is functional, whereas CD8␤␤ is inactive and retained in the ER (53)(54)(55)(56)(57). The co-expression of CD8␣ relocalizes CD8␤ to the cell surface (57,58).…”

“…The two general approaches for examining this interac tion have been either to look for monoclonal antibodies which bind to the immunizing clone, or alternatively to screen for an effect of the monoclonal antibodies on a functional activity of the T-cell clone. Variant clones lacking Lyt-2 had markedly reduced levels of cytotoxic activity, although this diminished functional activity could be overcome by the addition of lectins (87). However, in a more directed sense, it was hoped that some monoclonal antibodies would be clonally specifi c, and thus might be reactive with the T-cell receptor.…”

“…Studied by Dialynas et al (1981) showed that Con A mediated antigen nonspecific cytotoxicity by a cloned CTL line is not inhibited by Lyt-2 antibodies. There are several possibilities that may explain the discrepancy between our findings and those of Dialynas et al (1981). 1) Blocking by Lyt-2 antibody may be dependent on the concentration of Con A used.…”
