Cell Biol. 22:2002;400-411 The authors use buthionine sulfoximine to mimic oxidative stress in T lymphocytes. Similar to what is seen in T cells from patients with RA [14], they find that LAT is displaced from the membrane under these conditions. They propose a model that, in an oxidizing environment, disulfide bonds form between cysteine residues in LAT, leading to a conformational change and subsequent membrane displacement.

Cell Biol. 21:2001;6102-6112 Using a yeast two-hybrid screen, the authors identify the kinase HPK1 as a binding partner for the SLP-76 family member, CLNK. Even though they are believed to have different sets of binding partners, CLNK is able to rescue signaling in SLP-76 deficient Jurkat T cells, perhaps because of its associate with HPK1.

Immunol. 2:2001;29-36 The authors examine T-cell signaling in Grb2 heterozygous mice. Similar to the sensitivity of MAPKs to activation with PMA, they find that decreased levels of Grb2 affect the various MAPKs differently. In turn, these differences lead to decreased negative selection leaving positive selection intact. This paper effectively illustrates the consequences that gene dosage may have on physiologic processes.

Cutting edge: negative regulation of immune synapse formation by anchoring lipid raft to cytoskeleton through Cbp-EBP50-ERM assembly. J. Immunol. 168:2002;541-544 The authors identify the Cbp binding protein EBP. They show that, when Cbp is overexpressed in cells, the reorganization of lipid rafts is impeded. This function appears to be dependent on the ability of Cbp to bind EBP. Therefore, they propose that the Cbp-EBP complex negatively regulates immune synapse formation.

45. •] have identified a SLAP-related adaptor, SLAP-2. Overexpression of SLAP-2 in both T and B cells leads to a downmodulation of several signaling events, including calcium flux, NFAT activation and downstream IL-2 production. In addition, they determine that c-Cbl associates with the carboxyl terminus of SLAP-2. The C-terminal region of SLAP-2 is necessary for its inhibitory function, suggesting a role for the SLAP-2-c-Cbl complex in downregulating T- and B-cell function.

These cells show persistent activation and surface TCR expression is not downregulated in response to stimulation. Trafficking of internalized TCR to the lysosomal compartment is impaired in the deficient T cells. In addition, although phosphorylation of ZAP-70 is increased, PLC-γ1 phosphorylation is decreased.
