CD6 is a surface glycoprotein receptor, which has been previously shown to associate with CD3 and co-localize to the center of the IS in static conditions or stable T cell-APC contacts.

| Product description: | Activation of the T cell receptor (TCR) on the T cell through ligation with antigen-MHC complex of an antigen-presenting cell (APC) is an essential process in the activation of T cells and induction of the subsequent adaptive immune response. Upon activation, the TCR, together with its associated co-receptor CD3 complex, assembles in signaling microclusters that are transported to the center of the organizational structure at the T cell-APC interface termed the immunological synapse (IS). During IS formation, local cell surface receptors and associated intracellular molecules are reorganized, ultimately creating the typical bull’s eye-shaped pattern of the IS. CD6 is a surface glycoprotein receptor, which has been previously shown to associate with CD3 and co-localize to the center of the IS in static conditions or stable T cell-APC contacts. |

| Production details: | Jurkat cell lines stably expressing CD6-GFP were obtained by electroporation using the Neon Transfection System for Electroporation (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer’s guidelines. Shortly, 5*105 Jurkat cells were transfected at 1325 Volt (10 ms, 3 pulses) with 3 ÄÂÄ?g of DNA in 100 ÄÂÄ?l Resuspension buffer. After transfection cells were seeded in 2 ml of 1640 RPMI with 10% FCS and 1% U-glut. Antibiotics were added after 3 h. Stable cell lines were sorted on GFP expression on… |

Disruption of actin polymerization inhibits TCR/CD3 and CD6 co-transport toward the cSMAC of the immunological synapse on ?CD3-containing SLBs. (A;B) CD6-GFP Jurkat T cells; either untreated or pretreated with 0.5 ?M Cytochalasin D for 15 min; were seeded on a SLB containing ATTO647-conjugated ?CD3. Twenty minutes after seeding CD6-GFP and ?CD3 dynamics were imaged using TIRF microscopy live cell imaging. Snap shots of every 30 s of the time lapse are shown in (A). Kymograph of the line (indicated in the Merge image at time point 0 min in A) during the whole imaging period (4.5 min) is shown in (B). (C) Wildtype Jurkat T cells; either untreated or pretreated with 0.5 ?M Cytochalasin D for 15 min; were seeded for 30 min on SLBs containing ATTO647-conjugated ?CD3; and subsequently fixed. Widefield microscopy was performed and cells (>44 cells per condition; three independent experiments) were scored for synapse formation based on identification of cells by brightfield displaying ?CD3 positive cluster formation in a lipid bilayer (DiI) positive area. Average percentages of cells forming an immunological synapse are represented in (C). Bars represent mean with SD. Statistical significance was tested with paired t-test. Scale bar represents 10 ?m; *p < 0.05. Taken from Meddens MBM; Mennens SFB; Celikkol FB; Te Riet J; Kanger JS; Joosten B; Witsenburg JJ; Brock R; Figdor CG; Cambi A.
