Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Proline-serine-threonine phosphatase interacting protein 1 (PSTPIP1) is a cytosolic adaptor protein involved with T-cell activation, differentiation, and migration. On cognate T-cell contact, PSTPIP1 is recruited to surface-expressed CD2, where it regulates F-actin remodeling. An immune synapse (IS) is thereby rapidly formed, consisting of T-cell receptor clusters surrounded by a ring of adhesion...
