Abstract excerpt
The human lymphocyte antigen (HLA) class II region encodes highly polymorphic peptide receptors, which associate in the ER to the chaperone invariant chain (Ii). Ii facilitates assembly of class II subunits to functional peptide receptors. We searched for a conserved structure on HLA-DR polypeptides that mediates contact to a previously identified proline-rich class-II-binding sequence of Ii. Major...
