The formation of an immunological synapse (IS) requires tight regulation of actin
dynamics by many actin polymerizing/depolymerizing proteins. However, the
significance of actin stabilization at the IS remains largely unknown. In this
paper, we identify a novel function of TAGLN2--an actin-binding protein
predominantly expressed in T cells--in stabilizing cortical F-actin, thereby
maintaining F-actin contents at the IS and acquiring LFA-1 (leukocyte
function-associated antigen-1) activation after T cell receptor stimulation.
TAGLN2 blocks actin depolymerization and competes with cofilin both in vitro and
in vivo. Knockout of TAGLN2 (TAGLN2(-/-)) reduced F-actin content and
destabilized F-actin ring formation, resulting in decreased cell adhesion and
spreading. TAGLN2(-/-) T cells displayed weakened cytokine production and
cytotoxic effector function. These findings reveal a novel function of TAGLN2 in
enhancing T cell responses by controlling actin stability at the IS.
