Abstract

The two subunits of the human class I histocompatibility antigen (HLA)-A2 have been expressed at high levels (20-30 mg/liter) as insoluble aggregates in bacterial cells. The aggregates were dissolved in 8 M urea and then refolded to form an HLA-A2-peptide complex by removal of urea in the presence of an antigenic peptide. Two peptides from the matrix protein and nucleoprotein of influenza virus are known to bind to HLA-A2, and both support the refolding of the recombinant HLA-A2 molecule. An additional peptide, a nonamer from the gp120 envelope protein of human immunodeficiency virus type 1, also supported refolding. Yields of purified recombinant HLA-A2 are 10-15%. In the absence of an HLA-A2-restricted peptide, a stable HLA-A2 complex was not formed. Monoclonal antibodies known to bind to native HLA-A2 also bound to the recombinant HLA-A2-peptide complex. Three purified HLA-A2-peptide complexes refolded from bacterially produced protein aggregates crystallize under the identical conditions as HLA-A2 purified from human lymphoblastoid cells. Crystals of the recombinant HLA-A2 molecule in complex with the influenza matrix nonamer peptide, Mp(58-66), diffract to greater than 1.5-A resolution.

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.
