Peptidic termini play a significant role in TCR recognition.

TCR recognition of class I MHC is dependent on the composition of the antigenic peptide and the MHC. Single amino acid substitutions in either the MHC or the peptide may dramatically alter recognition. While the major interactions between TCR and the peptide/MHC complex appear to be focused on the complementarity-determining region (CDR)3, it is also clear from the cocrystal structure of class ...

T cell recognition of non-peptidic antigens in infectious diseases

The immune system has evolved to recognize a wide range of antigenic molecules of self and non-self origin. The stimulatory antigens form complexes with antigen-presenting molecules and directly interact with the T cell receptor (TCR). Peptidic antigens associate with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules and therefore, are indicated as MHC-restricted. Non-peptidic antigens do not bi...

Evaluation of Specific Purified TCR Effect on the Immunoregulatory Potential of TGF-beta

Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-b) is a mediator released by nearly all cell types. It has suppression activity on the immune system, but exactly how this effect is carried out is not clear. Previous experiments showed that IgG interacts with or carriers active TGF-b, that could suppresses cytotoxic T-cell responses to an immunogenic tumor in mice. Since T cell receptor (TCR) has structura...

Tumor Recognition following Vgamma9Vdelta2 T Cell Receptor Interactions with a Surface F1-ATPase-Related Structure and Apolipoprotein A-I. Immunity 22: 71-80 Tumor Recognition following Vgamma9Vdelta2 T Cell Receptor Interactions with a Surface F1-ATPase-Related Structure and Apolipoprotein A-I

V9V2 T lymphocytes, a major  lymphocyte subset in humans, display cytolytic activity against various tumor cells upon recognition of yet uncharacterized structures. Here we show that an entity related to the mitochondrial ATP-synthase is expressed on the membrane of target tumor cells and promotes their recognition by V9V2 T cells. When immobilized, purified ATP synthase induces the sel...

Recognition of a shared human prostate cancer-associated antigen by nonclassical MHC-restricted CD8+ T cells.

To identify prostate cancer-associated Ags, tumor-reactive T lymphocytes were generated using iterative stimulations of PBMC from a prostate cancer patient with an autologous IFN-gamma-treated carcinoma cell line in the presence of IL-2. A CD8+ T cell line and TCR alphabeta+ T cell clone were isolated that secreted IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha in response to autologous prostate cancer cells but not ...
