N2 - CD26 or dipeptidylpeptidase IV (DPP IV) is a cell surface protease involved in T-cell activation. Triggering or costimulation of T-cells via CD26 was shown to be dependent on the expression of the T-cell receptor (TCR) associated zeta-chain with at least one functional immune receptor tyrosine based activation motif (ITAM).
