Interaction of Staphylococcus aureus toxin "superantigens" with human T cells

Y W Choi et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1989 Nov.

Abstract

A modification of the polymerase chain reaction has been used to establish the fact that a collection of Staphylococcus aureus toxins are "superantigens," each of which interacts with the T-cell alpha beta receptor of human T cells by means of a specific set of V beta elements.
