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. The, superantigen binds as an intact protein outside the conventional peptide, antigen-binding site of the class II major histocompatibility complex, (MHC) molecule. No large conformational changes occur upon complex, formation in either the DR1 or the enterotoxin B molecules. The structure, of the complex helps explain how different class II molecules and, superantigens associate and suggests a model for ternary complex formation, with the T-cell antigen receptor (TCR), in which unconventional TCR-MHC, contacts are possible.

COMPLEX OF THE HUMAN MHC CLASS II GLYCOPROTEIN HLA-DR1 AND THE BACTERIAL SUPERANTIGEN SEB

Overview

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. The superantigen binds as an intact protein outside the conventional peptide antigen-binding site of the class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule. No large conformational changes occur upon complex formation in either the DR1 or the enterotoxin B molecules. The structure of the complex helps explain how different class II molecules and superantigens associate and suggests a model for ternary complex formation with the T-cell antigen receptor (TCR), in which unconventional TCR-MHC contacts are possible.

About this Structure
