epitope corresponding to amino acids 111-301 mapping at the C-terminus of TIM-3 of human origin
Modification Notes
CD4+ T helper lymphocytes can be divided into types 1(Th1) and 2 (Th2) on the basis of their cytokine secretion patterns.Th1 cells and their associated cytokines are involved in cell-mediated immunity to intracellular pathogens and delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions. Th2 cells are involved in the control of extracellular helminthic infections and the promotion of atopic and allergic diseases. T cell Ig- and Mucin-domain-containing molecules (TIMs) are a family of molecules expressed on T cells. TIM-3 is a Th1-specific cell surface protein that regulates macrophage activation and enhances the severity of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice. TIM-3 binds galectin-9, thereby inducing apoptosis of Th1 cells. This interaction with galectin-9 also stimulates the phosphorylation of Tim-3 on residue Y265 by the interleukin-inducible T cell kinase, Emt.
