1 BACKGROUND: One of the earliest activation events following stimulation of the T cell receptor (TCR) is the phosphorylation of the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) within the CD3-associated complex by the Src family kinase Lck. Tyrosine T cell receptor beta variable 20/OR9-2 (non-functional) Homo sapiens
2 BACKGROUND: One of the earliest activation events following stimulation of the T cell receptor (TCR) is the phosphorylation of the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) within the CD3-associated complex by the Src family kinase Lck. Tyrosine T cell receptor beta variable 20/OR9-2 (non-functional) Homo sapiens
3 TCR stimulation led to the co-precipitation of Lck with the transmembrane adaptor protein LAT (linker for activation of T cells), Erk-mediated phosphorylation of Lck and no detectable dephosphorylation of Lck inhibitory tyrosine. Tyrosine T cell receptor beta variable 20/OR9-2 (non-functional) Homo sapiens
4 Strikingly, upon LAT knockdown in Hut-78 cells, we found that LAT promoted TCR-induced phosphorylation of Lck and Fyn activatory tyrosines, TCRzeta chain phosphorylation and Zap-70 activation. Tyrosine T cell receptor beta variable 20/OR9-2 (non-functional) Homo sapiens
