The T cell antigen receptor consists of an antigen-binding heterodimer that is noncovalently associated with at least five CD3 subunits (.gamma., .delta., .epsilon., .zeta., and .eta.). The CD3-.zeta. chains are either disulfide-linked homodimers (CD3-.zeta.2) or disulfide-linked heterodimers with .eta. (CD3-.zeta..eta.). Variants of a murine antigen-specific T cell hybridoma that express normal amounts of CD3-.zeta.2 but decreased amounts of CD3-.zeta..eta. were isolated. When activated, the parental cell line increased both phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis and serine-specific protein kinase activtiy to a much greater extent than the variants. In contrast, the activation of a tyrosine-specific kinase after stimulation with a cross-linking antibody to CD3 was similar among these cells. There was a positive linear relation between the expression of CD3-.zeta..eta. and phosphoinositide hydrolysis stimulated by the TCR, suggesting a differential coupling of the T cell .alpha..beta. heterodimer to signal transduction mechanisms due to .alpha..beta. association with either CD3-.zeta.2 or CD3-.zeta..eta.
