Difference between Glycoprotein and T-cell receptor

Glycoprotein vs. T-cell receptor

Glycoproteins are proteins that contain oligosaccharide chains (glycans) covalently attached to amino acid side-chains. The T-cell receptor, or TCR, is a molecule found on the surface of T cells, or T lymphocytes, that is responsible for recognizing fragments of antigen as peptides bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules.

Similarities between Glycoprotein and T-cell receptor

Glycoprotein and T-cell receptor have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antibody, Antigen, Major histocompatibility complex, T cell.

Antibody

An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

Antigen

In immunology, an antigen is a molecule capable of inducing an immune response (to produce an antibody) in the host organism.

Major histocompatibility complex

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a set of cell surface proteins essential for the acquired immune system to recognize foreign molecules in vertebrates, which in turn determines histocompatibility.

T cell

A T cell, or T lymphocyte, is a type of lymphocyte (a subtype of white blood cell) that plays a central role in cell-mediated immunity.
