Abstract excerpt
A naturally processed and presented ligand that is shared by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) B*4402, B*4403 and B*4405 molecules has been identified in peptides isolated from immunoaffinity purified HLA B44 complexes. This peptide derived from HLA DPalpha residues 46-54, an endogenous product of HLA DP expressed in the cell line Hmy2.C1R, is a prominent peptide in the mass spectra of species isolated as bound...
