  30. LFA-3–Ig, a dimeric fusion protein consisting of the CD2-binding portion of the human lymphocyte function-associated antigen-3 (LFA-3) linked to the Fc portion of human IgG1 • complement-mediated lysis • interruption of CD2’s interactions with LFA-3 • limiting helper T cell adhesion to antigen-presenting cells • disrupting the engagement of effector T cell receptor engagement with antigen and major histocompatibility complex molecules
