Fractionation of mycobacterial integral membrane proteins by continuous elution SDS-PAGE reveals the immunodominance of low molecular weight subunits for human T cells.

abstract：:Natural killer (NK) cell adoptive transfer is a promising approach for cancer immunotherapy; however, its development has been hindered by the lack of efficient methods to produce large numbers of functional NK cells. In this study, we engineered the leukaemia cell line K562 to express CD137 ligand (CD137L) and membra...
