Three-dimensional structure of the human class II histocompatibility antigen HLA-DR1
The three-dimensional structure of the class II histocompatibility glycoprotein HLA-DR1 from human B-cell membranes has been determined by X-ray crystallography and is similar to that of class I HLA.… Expand

Crystal structure of the human class II MHC protein HLA-DR1 complexed with an influenza virus peptide
An influenza virus peptide binds to HLA-DR1 in an extended conformation with a pronounced twist. Thirty-five per cent of the peptide surface is accessible to solvent and potentially available for… Expand

Structure of the human class I histocompatibility antigen, HLA-A2
The class I histocompatibility antigen from human cell membranes has two structural motifs: the membrane-proximal end of the glycoprotein contains two domains with immunoglobulin-folds that are… Expand

The foreign antigen binding site and T cell recognition regions of class I histocompatibility antigens
Most of the polymorphic amino acids of the class I histocompatibility antigen, HLA-A2, are clustered on top of the molecule in a large groove identified as the recognition site for processed foreign… Expand

The selective downregulation of class I major histocompatibility complex proteins by HIV-1 protects HIV-infected cells from NK cells.
To avoid detection by CTL, HIV encodes mechanisms for removal of class I MHC proteins from the surface of infected cells. However, class I downregulation potentially exposes the virus-infected cell… Expand

Recognition of haemagglutinins on virus-infected cells by NKp46 activates lysis by human NK cells
Natural killer (NK) cells destroy virus-infected and tumour cells, apparently without the need for previous antigen stimulation. In part, target cells are recognized by their diminished expression of… Expand

Toll-like Receptor 2 (TLR2) and TLR4 Differentially Activate Human Dendritic Cells*
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) mediate cell activation by various microbial products. Here, we demonstrate that activation of dendritic cells by TLR2 or TLR4 agonists, although it led to comparable… Expand

Molecular mimicry in T cell-mediated autoimmunity: Viral peptides activate human T cell clones specific for myelin basic protein
Abstract Structural similarity between viral T cell epitopes and self-peptides could lead to the induction of an autoaggressive T cell response. Based on the structural requirements for both MHC… Expand

Kinetics and peptide dependency of the binding of the inhibitory NK receptor CD94/NKG2‐A and the activating receptor CD94/NKG2‐C to HLA‐E
The lytic function of human natural killer (NK) cells is markedly influenced by recognition of class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules, a process mediated by several types of… Expand

Three-dimensional structure of a human class II histocompatibility molecule complexed with superantigen
The structure of a bacterial superantigen, Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B, bound to a human class II histocompatibility complex molecule (HLA-DR1) has been determined by X-ray crystallography.… Expand
