This PTCRA antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 197-225 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human PTCRA.
In immature T cells the T-cell receptor beta-chain gene (TCRB, MIM 186930) is rearranged and expressed before the TCRA (MIM 186880) chain. At this early stage, TCRB can associate with the pre-T-cell receptor alpha chain (PTCRA). The PTCRA, together with TCRB and the CD3 complex (see MIM 186740), minimally make up the pre-T cell receptor (pre-TCR), which regulates early T cell development.
