Citrullination-dependent differential presentation of a self-peptide by HLA-B27 subtypes.
Inflammatory processes are accompanied by the posttranslational modification of certain arginine residues within proteins to yield citrulline, although it is largely unknown how this modification influences antigen presentation. We employed crystallographic and functional studies to investigate whether the exchange of arginine to citrulline affects the display of a peptide by two human major hi...
متن کاملDual, HLA-B27 Subtype-dependent Conformation of a Self-peptide
The products of the human leukocyte antigen subtypes HLA-B*2705 and HLA-B*2709 differ only in residue 116 (Asp vs. His) within the peptide binding groove but are differentially associated with the autoimmune disease ankylosing spondylitis (AS); HLA-B*2705 occurs in AS-patients, whereas HLA-B*2709 does not. The subtypes also generate differential T cell repertoires as exemplified by distinct T c...
متن کاملPresentation of a Self-peptide in Two Distinct Conformations by a Disease-associated HLA-B27 Subtype
The MHC locus on human chromosome 6 harbors the most polymorphic genes in the human genome, and the large number of alleles in human populations has permitted key structural features of MHC class I and class II genes that influence susceptibility to several human autoimmune diseases to be delineated. In this issue, Hülsmeyer et al. adds a new twist to the already rich literature on MHC polymorp...
متن کاملAcute anterior uveitis and HLA-B27 subtypes.
The tissue antigen HLA-B27 is found in 50% of Dutch acute anterior uveitis (AAU) patients. The prevalence of HLA-B27 in the normal population is only 8%. However, only approximately 1% of HLA-B27+ individuals will develop AAU. Therefore, it is possible that the disease is associated with a particular B27 subtype. We typed lymphocytes of 36 B27+ AAU patients, of which 20 also had ankylosing spon...
متن کاملCutting Edge: Allele-specific and peptide-dependent interactions between KIR3DL1 and HLA-A and HLA-B.
Although it is clear that KIR3DL1 recognizes Bw4(+) HLA-B, the role of Bw4(+) HLA-A allotypes as KIR3DL1 ligands is controversial. We therefore examined the binding of tetrameric HLA-A and -B complexes, including HLA*2402, a common Bw4(+) HLA-A allotype, to KIR3DL1*001, *005, *007, and *1502 allotypes. Only Bw4(+) tetramers bound KIR3DL1. Three of four HLA-A*2402 tetramers bound one or more KIR...
