Abstract excerpt
We have examined the expression of HLA B*2705 in the mutant cell line 721.220, which lacks endogenous HLA A and B alleles and expresses a defective tapasin molecule. Several peptide sensitive mAbs distinguish between HLA B*2705 expressed on the surface of 721.220 cells (B27.220) and 721.220 cells co-transfected with human tapasin (B27.220.hTsn). This differential staining defines subtle differences in the...
