The present disclosure provides fusion proteins with improved signaling properties. Disclosed embodiments include fusion proteins that comprise an extracellular component comprising a target-binding domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular component comprising a SH2 domain or a functional portion or variant thereof, and have improved signaling in response to antigen-binding, including of solid-tumor antigens with low levels of expression. Recombinant host cells expressing the fusion proteins, and polynucleotides encoding the fusion proteins, are also provided, as are compositions and methods comprising the same. |
