<unk>  between Jurkat T cell expressing GFP-actin (green) and Raji B cell stained with CMAC (blue). Synapse formation was induced by Staphylococcal enterotoxin E superantigen. In immunology, an<unk>  (or immune synapse) is the interface between an antigen-presenting cell or target cell and a lymphocyte such as a T/B cell or Natural Killer cell. The interface was originally named after the neuronal synapse, with which it shares the main structural pattern. An<unk>  consists of molecules involved in T cell activation, which compose typical patterns—activation clusters.<unk> s are the subject of much ongoing research.
