Molecular Interactions and Recognition Specificity of Surface Receptors

  • Chapter
Contemporary Topics in Immunobiology

Part of the book series: Contemporary Topics in Immunobiology ((CTI,volume 9))

Abstract

Virtually all cells express some capacity to recognize and respond to external molecular stimuli. One system that has been subjected to extensive study is the recognition of an antigen by immunologically competent lymphocytes. This is a phenomenon in which cell-surface receptor molecules bind “non-self” ligands in a specific manner. This binding initiates a chain of molecular events that underlie lymphocyte activation and interaction among immunocytes, with the eventual results being the production of specific effector thymus-derived (T) or bonemarrow-derived (B) cells. The capacity to discriminate between “self” and “nonself” is not restricted to vertebrate species, although the receptors and mechanisms evolved by plants (Clarke and Knox, 1978) and invertebrate species (Jenkin, 1976) apparently differ from those of the vertebrate immune system (Marchalonis, 1977 a). Available data suggest that surface glycoproteins are involved in such recognition events, and the possible similarities and differences governing cell-surface recognition in these three systems and in embryonic development are problems of great current interest.
