| Abstract | Dynamic binding between CD2 and CD58 counter-receptors on opposing cells optimizes immune recognition through stabilization of cell-cell contact and juxtaposition of surface membranes at a distance suitable for T cell receptor-ligand interaction. Digitized time-lapse differential interference contrast and immunofluorescence microscopy on living cells now show that this binding also induces T cell polarization. Moreover, CD2 can facilitate motility of T cells along antigen-presenting cells via a movement referred to as scanning. Both activated CD4 and CD8 T cells are able to scan antigen-presenting cells surfaces in the absence of cognate antigen. Scanning is critically dependent on T cell beta-integrin function, as well as myosin light chain kinase. More importantly, surface CD2 molecules rapidly redistribute on interaction with a cellular substratum, resulting in a 100-fold greater CD2 density in the uropod versus the leading edge. In contrast, no redistribution is observed for CD11a/CD18 or CD45. Molecular compartmentalization of CD2, T cell receptor, and lipid rafts within the uropod prearranges the cellular activation machinery for subsequent immune recognition. This 'presynapse' formation on primed T cells will likely facilitate the antigen-dependent recognition capability required for efficient immune surveillance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
