The immunological synapse and the actin cytoskeleton: molecular hardware for T cell signaling

ML Dustin, JA Cooper - Nature immunology, 2000 - nature.com
The actin cytoskeleton seems to play two critical roles in the activation of T cells. One of
these roles is T cell shape development and movement, including formation of the …
