    recognizes and binds to specific antigens on infected cells

    A T cell receptor (TCR) is a specialized molecule found on the surface of T cells, which are a type of white blood cell crucial for the immune system. TCRs recognize and bind to specific antigens presented by other cells, allowing T cells to identify and respond to infected or abnormal cells, such as those affected by viruses or cancer.
