Abstract
Much has been learned over the past few years about how protein tyrosine kinases mediate pre-TCR and mature alphabetaTCR function. The highlights include understanding the roles and the distinct effects of the Src and Syk families of protein tyrosine kinases in thymocyte development and function.
