CD3 zeta chain is a part of the TCR-CD3 complex present on T-lymphocyte cell surface that plays an essential role in adaptive immune response. When antigen presenting cells (APCs) activate T-cell receptor (TCR), TCR-mediated signals are transmitted across the cell membrane by the CD3 chains CD3D, CD3E, CD3G and CD3Z. All CD3 chains contain immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) in their cytoplasmic domain. Upon TCR engagement, these motifs become phosphorylated by Src family protein tyrosine kinases LCK and FYN, resulting in the activation of downstream signaling pathways.
CAR &#950; is another CAR aimed to increase the phagocytosis of the macrophages. And the structure is also similar to the other three CARs, with the difference in the intracellular domain which is replaced by CD &#950; subunit of the T cell receptor.

The main function domain of the CAR &#950; is the cytosolic Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motifs (ITAMs) as mentioned before. When the ligands matches its receptor, the Src family kinases will consequently be phosphorylated and thus activating the cytosolic Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motifs (ITAMs). The further signal pathway is the same as mentioned in CAR-MEGF10.

Intracellular Domain of CD3 zeta chain

CD3 zeta chain is a part of the TCR-CD3 complex present on T-lymphocyte cell surface that plays an essential role in adaptive immune response. When antigen presenting cells (APCs) activate T-cell receptor (TCR), TCR-mediated signals are transmitted across the cell membrane by the CD3 chains CD3D, CD3E, CD3G and CD3Z. All CD3 chains contain immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) in their cytoplasmic domain. Upon TCR engagement, these motifs become phosphorylated by Src family protein tyrosine kinases LCK and FYN, resulting in the activation of downstream signaling pathways.
