Specificity of T cell receptor (TCR) and its interaction with coreceptor molecules play decisive role in successful passing of T lymphocytes via check-points during their development and finally determine the efficiency of adaptive immunity. Genes encoding alpha- and beta-chains of TCR hybridoma 1D1 have been cloned. The hybridoma 1D1 was established by the fusion of BWZ.

The capacity of T-lymphocytes to recognize "nonself" and tolerating "self" is formed as a result of positive and negative selection in the thymus. While obtaining and testing specificity of T-hybridomas, we demonstrated that the major part of peripheral pool of CD8+ T-lymphocytes carried receptors specific to "self" MHC class II molecules. Such an unexpected specificity of receptors has been found in some T-cell hybridomas produced by fusion of activated peripheral CD8+ T-lymphocytes with a tumor partner transfected by the coreceptor CD4 gene.
