Summary
Flotillin link membrane microdomains to signalling endosome during T cell activation. This project aims to determine the mechanisms that connect signalling microdomains at the cell surface to intracellular signalling endosomes to regulate T cell activation. A T cell immune response begins with the reorganisation of the plasma membrane to yield two-dimensional signalling microdomains that must be connected to the three-dimensional microarchitecture of the endocytic matrix for full T cell activati ....Flotillin link membrane microdomains to signalling endosome during T cell activation. This project aims to determine the mechanisms that connect signalling microdomains at the cell surface to intracellular signalling endosomes to regulate T cell activation. A T cell immune response begins with the reorganisation of the plasma membrane to yield two-dimensional signalling microdomains that must be connected to the three-dimensional microarchitecture of the endocytic matrix for full T cell activation. This project hypothesises that Flotillin form distinct signalling microdomains in the plasma membrane that internalise to constitute an independent endocytic pathway. Using single-molecule and ultra-fast fluorescence imaging, the project will demonstrate that Flotillin represent a unique two-dimensional to three-dimensional regulatory mechanism for T cell signalling.Read moreRead less
