An unusual MHC molecule generates protective CD8+ T cell responses to chronic infection

2020-02-04

Abstract excerpt

The CD8+ T cell response to the intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii varies dramatically between mouse strains, resulting in differences in control of the parasite. Protection in BALB/c mice can be attributed to an unusually strong and protective MHC-1 L d -restricted CD8+ T cell response directed against a peptide derived from the parasite antigen GRA6. The MHC-1 L d molecule has limited peptide binding co...
