Abstract excerpt
The antigen presenting molecule major histocompatibility complex class I-related protein 1 (MR1) binds small molecule metabolites derived from the microbial riboflavin biosynthetic pathway and presents them at the cell surface for surveillance by MR1-restricted mucosal-associated invariant T cells (MAIT cells). MR1 ligands can originate in the extracellular space or in endosomal compartments that contain...
