Abstract excerpt
Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) is relatively nonadhesive on resting lymphocytes; however, the mechanisms underlying changes in its adhesiveness are poorly understood. In this study, we generated a Jurkat T cell clone, J+hi1.14, that contained low amounts of mRNA for RhoH, a leukocyte-specific inhibitory Rho family member. J+hi1.14 cells expressed constitutively adhesive LFA-1 and the cells bound...
