T cell signaling proteins 3D confocal microscope movies
This dataset contains 3D confocal microscope movies of T cell clones expressing different eGFP-tagged proteins as they undergo synapse formation with antigen presenting cells (APCs). Each movie shows a field of T cells and APCs every 20 s for 6 minutes after the cells are mixed. Each frame shows some cells in various stages of antigen presentation. The movies are for two parental T cell clones, four stimulation conditions and sixteen proteins. The acquisition and analysis of the movies is described in
