title: Candidate natural killer cell receptors.
abstract: Among the high points of immunological discovery has been the identification of antigen-recognizing receptors on B and T cells. Of the lymphocyte populations, only the NK cell receptor remains unknown. Consequently, any newly-recognized, cell-surface molecules expressed selectively on NK cells, especially ones that can transmit a signal to the cell upon appropriate ligand interaction, are possible candidates. This article describes such candidates.
