Abstract
New studies demonstrate a critical role for the adaptor protein SAP (SLAM-associated protein) during NKT cell development. By connecting homotypic SLAM family receptor interactions with the FynT Src kinase, SAP may integrate a set of long-standing yet seemingly disparate observations characterizing NKT cell development. In fact, SAP-dependent signaling may underlie the development of multiple unconventional T cell lineages whose thymic selection relies on homotypic interactions between hematopoietic cells.
