Rapid progress was made during the past year in the delineation of the nature of the initial biochemical events triggered by the T-cell antigen receptor. Antigen-mediated activation of phospholipase C was demonstrated to require protein tyrosine phosphorylation and, most surprising, activation of th

During the past year, major progress has been made in understanding proximal TCR signal-transduction events. Cbl has been identified as a negative regulator of kinases from the ZAP-70/Syk family. Studies on LAT, SLP-76, Itk and Vav have revealed their role in the activation of Ras and phospholipase-
Recent cDNA and genomic cloning have identified CD3 eta as an alternatively spliced product of the same gene locus that encodes CD3 zeta. Three distinct T-cell receptor isoforms have now been identified. A current view of the signal transduction function of these isoforms in thymocytes and T cells i
