Receptor glycosylation regulates Ly-49 binding to MHC class I.
Murine NK cells express the Ly-49 family of class I MHC-binding receptors that control their ability to lyse tumor or virally infected host target cells. X-ray crystallography studies have identified two predominant contact sites (sites 1 and 2) that are involved in the binding of the inhibitory receptor, Ly-49A, to H-2D(d). Ly-49G2 (inhibitory) and Ly-49D (activating) are highly homologous to ...
متن کاملRecognition of class I MHC by NK receptor Ly-49C: identification of critical residues.
The Ly-49 family of inhibitory receptors plays a major role in regulating mouse NK cell cytotoxicity. Two of its members, Ly-49C and I, are recognized by the mAb 5E6, which also defines a subset of NK cells involved in the hybrid resistance phenomenon. Previous studies have shown that Ly-49C binds to a broad spectrum of class I MHC molecules, while Ly-49I apparently does not bind to any class I...
متن کاملLy-49-independent natural killer (NK) cell specificity revealed by NK cell clones derived from p53-deficient mice
Natural killer (NK) cells are heterogeneous in their specificity and expression of cell surface molecules. In the mouse, the Ly-49A molecule is a primary determinant of NK cell specificity because of its ability to downregulate NK cell activation after physical interaction with target cell MHC class I molecules. Ly-49A is expressed on an NK cell subset, and it belongs to a family of highly rela...

متن کاملA natural killer cell receptor specific for a major histocompatibility complex class I molecule
Target cell expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules correlates with resistance to lysis by natural killer (NK) cells. Prior functional studies of the murine NK cell surface molecule, Ly-49, suggested its role in downregulating NK cell cytotoxicity by specifically interacting with target cell H-2Dd molecules. In support of this hypothesis, we now demonstrate a phys...
