CD2 (cluster of differentiation 2) is a cell adhesion molecule found on the surface of T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. It has also been called T-cell surface antigen T11/Leu-5, LFA-2, [5] LFA-3 receptor, erythrocyte receptor and rosette receptor.
Jun 9, 2020 · CD2 (green) is positioned in the T cell plasma membrane (light red) and locates to both the cSMAC and corolla. CD2 binds to lymphocyte-associated antigen 3 (LFA3; dark blue) which is located in the plasma membrane of the antigen-presenting cell (light blue). Among other molecules, TCR/pMHC and CD28/CD80/86 complexes also locate to the cSMAC.

CD2 is a transmembrane molecule and a member of the immunoglobulin supergene family. CD2 plays an important role in T-cell activation, T- or NK-mediated cytolysis, apoptosis in activated peripheral T cells, and the production of cytokines by T cells. It is expressed by thymocytes, peripheral T cells, NK cells, and a subset of thymic B cells.
Jun 9, 2020 · Overall, CD2 is an attractive target for monoclonal antibodies intended for treatment of pathologies characterized by undesired T cell activation and offers an avenue to more selectively target memory T cells while favoring immune regulation.
Sep 14, 2020 · The CD2–CD58 recognition system promotes adhesion and signaling and counters exhaustion in human T cells. We found that CD2 localized to the outer edge of the mature immunological synapse, with...
