Abstract excerpt
Studies using major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-Ia-deficient mice have shown that MHC-Ib-restricted CD8+ T cells can clear infections caused by intracellular pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes. M3-restricted CD8+ T cells, which recognize short hydrophobic N-formylated peptides, appear to comprise a substantial portion of the MHC-Ib-restricted T cell response in the mouse model of L. monocytogenes...
