The supramolecular activation complex (SMAC) is an organized structure that forms at the point of contact between a T cell and its target cell, where ligand-bound antigen receptors are co-localized with other cell-surface signaling and adhesion molecules.
El complejo de activación supramolecular (SMAC) es una estructura organizada que se forma en el punto de contacto entre una célula T y su célula diana, donde los receptores de antígeno ligados se co-localizan con otras moléculas de señalización y adhesión de la superficie celular.
