Zfat-deficiency results in a loss of CD3ζ phosphorylation with dysregulation of ERK and Egr activities leading to impaired positive selection.
The human ZFAT gene was originally identified as a susceptibility gene for autoimmune thyroid disease. Mouse Zfat is a critical transcriptional regulator for primitive hematopoiesis and required for peripheral T cell homeostasis. However, its physiological roles in T cell development remain poorly u...
