Correlation of structure with T cell responses of the three members of the HLA-DRw52 allelic series
A third allele at the DRB3 locus, DRw52c, represents an intermediate sequence between DRw52a and DRw52b and may have arisen by a gene conversion-like event. The recognition of cells bearing these molecules by a number of alloreactive and antigen-specific DR-restricted T cell clones was analyzed. On...

description | A third allele at the DRB3 locus, DRw52c, represents an intermediate sequence between DRw52a and DRw52b and may have arisen by a gene conversion-like event. The recognition of cells bearing these molecules by a number of alloreactive and antigen-specific DR-restricted T cell clones was analyzed. On the basis of a theoretical model of HLA class II structure, distinct amino acid clusters have been identified as motifs controlling TCR recognition. These are located both in the cleft and in the alpha-helical edge of the MHC class II recognition platform. Motifs shared between two alleles may restrict public T cell clones. |
