Signaling in the immunological synapse: defining the optimal size
Abstract
In this issue of Immunity, Varma et al. (2006) report that in the synapses between T cells and planar bilayers, T cell receptor (TCR) proximal signaling takes place in peripheral TCR-microclusters that form continually and that TCR signaling ceases when they fuse with the central supramolecular activation cluster.
