چکیده

Viral diseases pose major threats to humans and other animals, including the billions of chickens that are an important food source as well a public health concern due zoonotic pathogens. Unlike typical mammals, histocompatibility complex (MHC) can confer decisive resistance or susceptibility many viral diseases. An iconic example is Marek’s disease, caused by oncogenic herpesvirus with over 100 genes. Classical MHC class I II molecules present antigenic peptides T lymphocytes, it has been hard understand how such could be involved in given potential number from We used new vitro infection system immunopeptidomics determine peptide motifs for 2 expressed haplotype B2, which known disease. Surprisingly, we found vast majority epitopes presented chicken arise only 4 genes, nearly all having motif BL2*02, dominantly molecule chickens. BL2*02 linked several disease virus (MDV) determined one X-ray crystal structure, showing single small amino acid binding site causes crinkle peptide, leading core 10 acids, compared 9 acids reported molecules. The limited cell explain differential MHC-determined MDV, but raises questions mechanism opportunities vaccine targets this species, providing basis understanding species humans.

Building a meta-predictor for MHC class II-binding peptides.

Prediction of class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-peptide binding is a challenging task due to variable length of binding peptides. Different computational methods have been developed; however, each has its own strength and weakness. In order to provide reliable prediction, it is important to design a system that enables the integration of outcomes from various predictors. In this c...

Definition of an extended MHC class II-peptide binding motif for the autoimmune disease-associated Lewis rat RT1.BL molecule.

The Lewis rat, an inbred rat strain susceptible to several well-characterized experimental autoimmune diseases, provides a good model to study peptide-mediated immunotherapy. Peptide immunotherapy focussing on the modulation of T cell responses by interfering with TCR-peptide-MHC complex formation requires the elucidation of the molecular basis of TCR-peptide-MHC interactions for an efficient d...

Bidirectional binding of invariant chain peptides to an MHC class II molecule.

T-cell recognition of peptides bound to MHC class II (MHCII) molecules is a central event in cell-mediated adaptive immunity. The current paradigm holds that prebound class II-associated invariant chain peptides (CLIP) and all subsequent antigens maintain a canonical orientation in the MHCII binding groove. Here we provide evidence for MHCII-bound CLIP inversion. NMR spectroscopy demonstrates t...

Functional consequences of the binding of MHC class II-derived peptides to MHC class II.

Three MHC class II-derived synthetic peptides (I-A beta (g7)1-16, I-A beta (g7)52-77 and I-A alpha (g7)63-82YC) were analyzed for their ability to bind to syngeneic and allogeneic MHC class II molecules using a whole cell, competitive peptide binding assay. These studies demonstrated that the A beta (g7)1-16 peptide was able to specifically bind to syngeneic as well as to four allogeneic MHC cl...

Predicting the binding affinity of MHC class II peptides.

MHC (Major Histocompatibility Complex) proteins are categorized under the heterodimeric integral membrane proteins. The MHC molecules are divided into 2 subclasses, class I and class II. Two classes differ from each other in size of their binding pockets. Predicting the affinity of these peptides is important for vaccine design. It is also vital for understanding the roles of immune system in v...
