Introduction
The MHC class I-like molecule, MR1, is an antigen presenting protein that specifically activates mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells. It has been found that microbial vitamin B metabolites serve as MR1 ligands that activate the MAIT cells.
MR1 is MHC Class I Related

Finally relate how MHC structure/function is similar to MR1. Explain chains, b2m, folding.
