The human major histocompatibility complex class Ib molecule HLA‐E binds signal sequence‐derived peptides with primary anchor residues at positions 2 and 9

Braud, Veronique, Yvonne Jones, E., McMichael, Andrew·1997·European Journal of Immunology

Abstract

Human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen E (HLA‐E) and mouse major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class Ib antigen, Qa‐1, share the same substitutions at two normally conserved positions 143 and 147, which are likely to affect binding of the C terminus of peptides. Qa‐1 is able to bind a peptide derived from the leader sequence of H‐2 D and H‐2 L molecules. We developed a peptide binding assay in vitro to compare the binding specificity of HLA‐E with the mouse MHC class Ib molecule Qa‐1. We demonstrate that HLA‐E binds, although poorly, the peptide which binds to Qa‐1 and that it also binds nonamer signal sequence‐derived peptides from human MHC class I molecules. Using alanine and glycine substitutions, we could define primary anchor residues at positions 2 and 9 and secondary anchor residues at position 7 and possibly 3.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
