## Abstract A subset of CD8^+^ T cells express the natural killer cell receptors CD94:NKG2A or CD94:NKG2C. We found that although many CD8^+^ T cells transcribe CD94 and NKG2C, expression of a functional CD94:NKG2C receptor is restricted to highly differentiated effector cells. CD94:NKG2A is expres
Multiple NK cell receptors for MHC class I have been identified. They include killer inhibitory receptors and CD94/NKG2 heterodimers in humans and the Ly49 family in mice. Here we report the cloning of murine NKG2A, B and C. The deduced amino acid sequence of mouse NKG2A contains only one consensus
