Abstract excerpt
The influence of subtle HLA diversification on antigen binding was explored using murine L-cell transfectants expressing alleles in the DR11/DR13 family and a panel of peptides. The levels of binding among this family of DR microvariants were as diverse as the levels of binding among distantly related DR molecules. Even a single amino acid difference between allelic products had a profound effect on peptide...
