Killer cell Ig-like receptor (KIR) and CD94:NKG2A molecules were
first defined as human NK cell receptors (NKR), but now are known to be
expressed and to function on subpopulations of T cells. Here the
repertoires of KIR and CD94:NKG2A expression by T cells from two donors
were examined and compared with their previously defined NK cell
repertoires. T cell clones generated from peripheral blood of both
donors expressed multiple NKR in different combinations and used the
range of receptors expressed by NK cells. In both donors 
T cells
less frequently expressed the inhibitory receptors CD94:NKG2A and
KIR2DL1 than either 
T cells or NK cells. In contrast to NK
cells, not all NKR+ T cells expressed an inhibitory
receptor for autologous HLA class I. This lack of specific inhibitory
NKR was especially apparent on 
T cells of one donor. Overall,

T cells exhibited a distinct pattern of NKR expression different
from that of 
T and NK cells, which expressed highly similar NKR
repertoires. In one donor, analysis of TCR rearrangement revealed a
dominant subset of NKR+ T cells sharing identical TCR
-
and
-chains. Remarkably, among 55 T cell clones sharing the same
TCR
rearrangement 18 different KIR phenotypes were seen,
suggesting that KIR expression was initiated subsequently to TCR
rearrangement.
