Bacterial proteins can be processed by macrophages in a transporter associated with antigen processing-independent, cysteine protease-dependent manner for presentation by MHC class I molecules.
MHC class I molecules present peptides derived primarily from endogenously synthesized proteins on the cell surface as ligands for CD8+ T cells. However, CD8+ T cell responses to extracellular bacteria, virus-infected, or tumor cells can also be elicited because certain professional APC can generate peptide/MHC class I (MHC-I) complexes from exogenous sources. Whether the peptide/MHC-I complexe...
متن کاملAutophagy mediates transporter associated with antigen processing-independent presentation of viral epitopes through MHC class I pathway.
The endogenous presentation of the majority of viral epitopes through MHC class I pathway is strictly dependent on the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) complex, which transfers the peptide products of proteasomal degradation into the endoplasmic reticulum. A small number of epitopes can be presented through the TAP-independent pathway, the precise mechanism for which remains...
متن کاملExogenous peptides delivered by ricin require processing by signal peptidase for transporter associated with antigen processing-independent MHC class I-restricted presentation.
In this study we demonstrate that a disarmed version of the cytotoxin ricin can deliver exogenous CD8(+) T cell epitopes into the MHC class I-restricted pathway by a TAP-independent, signal peptidase-dependent pathway. Defined viral peptide epitopes genetically fused to the N terminus of an attenuated ricin A subunit (RTA) that was reassociated with its partner B subunit were able to reach the ...
متن کاملHost immune system strikes back
Autophagy-mediated major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I presentation can follow either the conventional MHC class I pathway or a recently described vacuolar pathway. In the vacuolar pathway, protein degradation is effected by lysosomal proteases, peptide exchange takes place with recirculating MHC complexes and the newly formed peptide-MHC complexes reach the cell surface by the endoc...
متن کاملNucleotide binding by TAP mediates association with peptide and release of assembled MHC class I molecules
BACKGROUND Newly synthesised peptide-receptive major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules form a transient loading complex in the endoplasmic reticulum with the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) and a set of accessory proteins. Binding of peptide to the MHC class I molecule is necessary for dissociation of the MHC class I molecule from the complex with TAP, but ...
