Indicadores
A protein complex comprised of one T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 delta chain (CD3D), one T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 gamma chain (CD3G) and two T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 epsilon chains (CD3E). CD3D, CD3G and CD3E are transmembrane proteins with one extracellular immunoglobulin domain and one intracellular ITAM domain. The CD3 complex is a T-cell co-receptor that noncovalently associates with either the disulfide bound heterodimeric alpha/beta T-cell receptor (TCR) or gamma/delta TCR and two copies of the accessory protein, T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 zeta chain (CD247), which is a transmembrane protein with three ITAM domains. The TCR moiety of the TCR-CD3 complex binds to MHC and processed antigens on antigen presenting cells, which triggers phosphorylation of and cellular propagation of the signal by CD247 and the CD3 complex.

This gene plays a role in the progression of the cell cycle.
Indicadores
This gene functions as a tumor suppressor and transcriptional regulator.
Glossary Term
A manufacturer declaration that an in vitro diagnostic complies with applicable EU legislation (the IVDR since May 2022). CE-IVD indicates regulatory conformance, not a statement of clinical superiority; buyers still review performance claims and intended use.
Regulatory Definitions
Pruebas
A laboratory blood test to measure carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), a protein found in many types of cells, but is associated with tumors. Used as a tumor marker.

Indicadores
This gene plays a role in body weight homeostasis and cellular proliferation. Mutations in the gene are associated with acute myeloid leukemia.
Glossary Term
A process where a rotating machine exposes a specimen to centrifugal force. This process can be used to remove moisture from a specimen, to subject an organism to increased gravitational forces, or to separate the components of heterogeneous mixtures based on density differences.
Extraction Methodology
Glossary Term
A machine that uses centrifugal force to separate heavier substances from lighter ones, for removing moisture, or for simulating gravitational effects.
Pcr Terms
Glossary Term
The nonstaining primary constriction of a chromosome which is the point of attachment of the spindle fiber; provides the mechanism of chromosome movement during cell division; the centromere divides the chromosome into two arms, and its position is constant for a specific chromosome: near one end (acrocentric), near the center (metacentric), or between (submetacentric).
