Differential peptide dynamics is linked to major histocompatibility complex polymorphism.
Peptide presentation by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules is of central importance for immune responses, which are triggered through recognition of peptide-loaded MHC molecules (pMHC) by cellular ligands such as T-cell receptors (TCR). However, a unifying link between structural features of pMHC and cellular responses has not been established. Instead, pMHC/TCR binding studies su...
متن کاملResistance to murine cytomegalovirus linked to the major histocompatibility complex of the mouse.
Studies of the resistance patterns to infection with a murine cytomegalovirus in inbred strains of mice revealed the existence of resistant and susceptible strains. Resistance was found to be associated with possession of the H-2k allele at the major histocompatibility locus of the mouse. The F1 hybrid between a resistant strain (C3H/HeJ) and a susceptible strain (BALB/c) was found to have a re...
متن کاملA Mechanism for the Major Histocompatibility Complex–linked Resistance to Autoimmunity
Certain major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II haplotypes encode elements providing either susceptibility or dominant resistance to the development of spontaneous autoimmune diseases via mechanisms that remain undefined. Here we show that a pancreatic beta cell-reactive, I-Ag7-restricted, transgenic TCR that is highly diabetogenic in nonobese diabetic mice (H-2(g7)) undergoes thymocyte...
متن کاملMep-1 gene controlling a kidney metalloendopeptidase is linked to the major histocompatibility complex in mice.
Meprin, a glycoprotein with potent metalloendopeptidase activity, is an integral component of the brush border membrane of mouse kidney. Previously we reported that genealogically related inbred mouse strains (C3H and CBA) are markedly deficient in the activity of this enzyme. We report here that meprin deficiency is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait and that several other inbred strain...
متن کاملMajor Histocompatibility Complex–linked Control of Autoimmunity
A lthough the MHC is a key genetic component in au-toimmune disease, our knowledge of the mechanisms by which the molecules encoded within the MHC influence autoimmune processes remains incomplete. Because of the linkage disequilibrium that exists among the class I, II, and III genes within the HLA complex in humans and the homologous MHC complex in rodents, the absolute contribution of the ind...
