Abstract excerpt
Interaction of the TCR complex with self- or foreign peptides is a central event in the immune responses. Upon TCR stimulation, a protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK), ZAP-70, is recruited to signaling units of the TCR complex, such as TCRzeta, to play an essential role in T cell activation. Here, we find that mice lacking adaptor proteins Dok-1 and Dok-2 show augmented responses to thymus-dependent, but not...
