Abstract excerpt
Calcineurin is a calcium-dependent protein phosphatase that plays a pivotal role in antigen-stimulated T cell activation. The complexes formed between the immunosuppressants cyclosporin A and FK506 and their respective intracellular binding proteins (immunophilins) block T cell activation by binding to calcineurin. Recent studies have shown that the immunophilin-immunosuppressant complexes interact with the latch...
