    Abstract: Provided is an isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a NKp30 transmembrane domain, and a chimeric antigen receptor comprising the same. The isolated nucleic acid molecule comprising a NKp30 transmembrane domain comprises nucleic acid sequences encoding (a) an extracellular antigen binding domain, comprising a heavy chain variable region; (b) a hinge domain; (c) a NKp30 transmembrane domain; and (d) a NKp30 cytoplasmic domain. By introducing nucleic acid sequences of the NKp30 transmembrane domain and the NKp30 cytoplasmic domain in combination with the extracellular antigen binding domain into a T cell, the resulting CAR-T cell is a multi-chain CAR-T cell with a NKp30 receptor complex. Consequently, the resulting CAR-T cell forms stable immune synapses with cancer cells and exhibits excellent cytotoxicity against cancer cells.
