Immunity 14, 315-329 (2001). Using real-time imaging, this paper shows that, unlike wild-type Jurkat cells, LAT-deficient Jurkat cells fail to spread on anti-TCR-coated coverslips. Reconstitution of LAT expression rescues this signalling defect; however, the structural features of LAT required for this function and the precise signalling pathways required remain to be determined.
