title: A T-cell receptor gamma/CD3 complex found on cloned functional lymphocytes.
abstract: Cloned blood lymphocytes that do not express the alpha- and beta-chains of the T-cell receptor show MHC-unrestricted cytotoxicity. These cells carry the gamma-protein, disulphide-linked either to another molecule or to itself, and associated with the CD3 complex. These observations may help to solve the mystery posed by the discovery of the gamma gene.
