Expression of m157, a Murine Cytomegalovirus-Encoded Putative Major Histocompatibility Class I (MHC-I)-Like Protein, Is Independent of Viral Regulation of Host MHC-I
13 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
A murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV)-encoded protein, m157, has a putative major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) structure and is recognized by the Ly49H NK cell activation receptor. Using a monoclonal antibody against m157, in this study we directly demonstrated that m157 is a cell surface-expressed glycophosphatidylinositol-anchored protein with early viral gene kinetics. Beta-2 microglobulin and TAP1...
