CryoEM structure of an MHC-I/TAPBPR peptide bound intermediate reveals the mechanism of antigen proofreading
2024-08-07
Abstract excerpt
Class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC-I) proteins play a pivotal role in adaptive immunity by displaying epitopic peptides to CD8+ T cells. The chaperones tapasin and TAPBPR promote the selection of immunogenic antigens from a large pool of intracellular peptides. Interactions of chaperoned MHC-I molecules with incoming peptides are transient in nature, and as a result, the precise antigen proofreading mec...
