Hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1) is a negative regulator of T-cell receptor signaling and as such is an attractive target for cancer immunotherapy. Although the role of the HPK1 kinase domain (KD) has been extensively characterized, the function of its citron homology domain (CHD) remains elusive. Through a combination of structural, biochemical, and mechanistic studies, we characterize the structure-function of CHD in relationship to KD.

However, the signaling pathways transducing the effects of mGlu in the brain remain poorly characterized. Here, we addressed this issue by identifying native mGlu interactome in mouse prefrontal cortex.
