Signal-Transducing Adaptor Protein-2 Modulates Fas-Mediated T Cell Apoptosis by Interacting with Caspase-8 [PDF]
Abstract We found that an adaptor protein, signal-transducing adaptor protein (STAP)-2, is a new member of the Fas–death-inducing signaling complex and participates in activation-induced cell death in T cells. STAP-2 enhanced Fas-mediated apoptosis and caspase-8 aggregation and activation in Jurkat T cells.

Stoichiometry and intracellular fate of TRIM-containing TCR complexes [PDF]
Background: Studying the stoichiometry and intracellular trafficking of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) is pivotal in understanding its mechanisms of activation. The αβTCR includes the antigen-binding TCRαβ heterodimer as well as the signal transducing

Signal-Transducing Adaptor Protein-2 Regulates Stromal Cell-Derived Factor-1α-Induced Chemotaxis in T Cells [PDF]
AbstractSignal-transducing adaptor protein-2 (STAP-2) is a recently identified adaptor protein that contains pleckstrin and Src homology 2-like domains, as well as a YXXQ motif in its C-terminal region. Our previous studies revealed that STAP-2 regulates integrin-mediated T cell adhesion.

The role of Crk adaptor proteins in T cell adhesion and migration
Crk adaptor proteins are key players in signal transduction from a variety of cell surface receptors. They are involved in early steps of lymphocyte activation through their SH2-mediated transient interaction with signal transducing effector molecules ...

Signal-Transducing Adaptor Protein-2 Regulates Integrin-Mediated T Cell Adhesion through Protein Degradation of Focal Adhesion Kinase [PDF]
Abstract Signal-transducing adaptor protein-2 (STAP-2) is a recently identified adaptor protein that contains pleckstrin homology- and Src homology 2-like domains as well as a YXXQ motif in its C-terminal region. Our previous studies demonstrated that STAP-2 binds to STAT3 and STAT5, and regulates their signaling pathways. In the present
