Description
Illustration of a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) spanning the cell membrane of a T-cell, a white blood cell of the immune system. This T-cell has been taken from a cancer patient and then genetically engineered to produce CARs on its surface that recognise targets on the patient's cancerous cells. This receptor has a signal protein (ZAP70, grey) attached to the intracellular domain (bottom).
