Plasma membrane LAT activation precedes vesicular recruitment defining two phases of early T-cell activation

Controversy exists over the function of plasma membrane versus intracellular vesicular LAT in T-cell receptor signaling. Here the authors use high resolution imaging of the temporal dynamics of LAT involvement to show that both sources of LAT are required, but at distinct stages.
