COMPLEX BETWEEN HUMAN T-CELL RECEPTOR, VIRAL PEPTIDE (TAX), AND HLA-A 0201

Contents

Overview

Recognition by a T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) of peptide complexed with a, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule occurs through variable, loops in the TCR structure which bury almost all the available peptide and, a much larger area of the MHC molecule. The TCR fits diagonally across the, MHC peptide-binding site in a surface feature common to all class I and, class II MHC molecules, providing evidence that the nature of binding is, general. A broadly applicable binding mode has implications for the, mechanism of repertoire selection and the magnitude of alloreactions.

Disease

Known diseases associated with this structure: Abacavir hypersensitivity, susceptibility to OMIM:[142800], Ankylosing spondylitis, susceptibility to, 1 OMIM:[142800], Hypoproteinemia, hypercatabolic OMIM:[109700], Stevens-Johnson syndrome, susceptibility to OMIM:[142800]
