Abstract

Although the antigen-specific receptors of T and B lymphocytes have been characterized, the receptors used by natural killer cells to recognize normal cells, tumors, and virus-infected cells have remained elusive. Recently, experimental systems have been developed to identify these structures, and candidate signal-transducing molecules have been proposed.
