Alternative splicing of MALT1 controls signalling and activation of CD4+ T cells

MALT1 regulates NFκB signalling both as a scaffolding protein and as a protease. Here the authors show that during T cell activation the expression of MALT1 gene switches to an alternatively spliced variant, which increases TCR signal transduction due to enhanced TRAF6 binding.
