Human NK cell development requires CD56-mediated motility and formation of the developmental synapse
CD56, a splicing variant of NCAM, marks human NK cell differentiation stages. Here the authors show that developing human NK cells form CD56-enriched synapses with stromal cells, and CD56 is critical to promote motility of NK cells that increases with their maturation.
