Adaptive immune responses require the exchange of information between T cells and Antigen Presenting cells (APCs). T cell receptors (TCRs) search and bind to processed antigen peptide bound to major histocompatibility complexes (pMHC) on the APC surface. During this process the surface molecules of the two cells are re-organized into a characteristic spatial pattern, known as Immunological Synapse (IS). The contact interface is segregated in three distinct regions, the central, peripheral and distal supramolecular activation clusters (c, p and dSMAC), occupied by different molecules. The formation of a stable IS leads to key events during the immune response, including T cell activation, fate decision and effector function such as...
