Abstract excerpt
To understand better the specificity of peptide binding by MHC class I molecules, we have evaluated the capacity of a panel of unrelated peptides to compete for the presentation of viral peptides presented by HLA-A3 and HLA-B27. The HIV-Nef7F peptide (74-82) was presented by HLA-A3 to Nef-specific HLA-A3-restricted CTL lines, and the influenza nucleoprotein peptide NP(380-393) was presented by HLA-B27 to...
