Abstract excerpt
The relationship between HLA-DR1 polymorphism and recognition of antigen by T cells was investigated. Two allelic variants of HLA-DR1, which differ by amino acid substitution at positions 85 and 86 of the beta chain, were characterized for the effect of substitution on recognition of foreign antigen by DR1-restricted T cells. Substitution of alanine and valine for valine and glycine residues at positions 85 and...
