THEMIS
Plays a central role in late thymocyte development by controlling both positive and negative T-cell selection. Required to sustain and/or integrate signals required for proper lineage commitment and maturation of T-cells. Regulates T-cell development through T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) signaling and in particular through the regulation of calcium influx and phosphorylation of Erk. Belongs to the themis family. 4 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
