Sooner or later, most immunologists must deal with the phenomenon of cellular 'activation'. Lymphocytes normally exist in a resting, or quiescent, state. On receipt of some external stimulus, the cells undergo a cascade of 'activation events' culminating in biological function. For T cells, occupancy of the T cell antigen-specific receptor (TCR) by its ligand (the combination of a peptide antig...
