Abstract
CD8+ and CD8- T cell lines expressing the same antigen-specific receptor [the 2C T cell receptor (TCR)] were compared for ability to bind soluble peptide-MHC and to lyse target cells. The 2C TCR on CD8- cells bound a syngeneic MHC (Kb+)-peptide complex 10-100 times less well than the same TCR on CD8+ cells, and the CD8- 2C cells lysed target cells presenting this complex very poorly. Surprisingly, however, the CD8- cells differed little from CD8+ cells in ability to bind an allogeneic MHC (Ld+)-peptide complex and to lyse target cells presenting this complex. The CD8+/CD8- difference provided an opportunity to estimate how long TCR engagements with peptide-MHC have to persist to initiate the cytolytic T cell response.
