Disease

DRB1_HUMAN Giant cell arteritis;NON RARE IN EUROPE: Rheumatoid arthritis;Narcolepsy type 1;Pediatric multiple sclerosis;Sarcoidosis;Systemic lupus erythematosus;Systemic-onset juvenile idiopathic arthritis;Autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis;Limited systemic sclerosis;Limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis;Diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis;NON RARE IN EUROPE: Multiple sclerosis;Follicular lymphoma;Bullous pemphigoid;NON RARE IN EUROPE: Celiac disease;Narcolepsy type 2. In populations of European descent, allele DRB1*01:03 is associated with increased susceptibility to Crohn disease and colonic ulcerative colitis. Decreased heterozygosity in individuals with colonic ulcerative colitis suggests that it acts as a recessive risk allele.^[1] Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Alleles DRB1*04:02, DRB1*11:01 and DRB1*12:01 are associated with sarcoidosis. Allele DRB1*04:02 is significantly associated with specific sarcodosis phenotypes such as eye, parotid and salivary gland involvement.^[2] Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. In populations of European descent, allele DRB1*15:01 has the strongest association with multiple sclerosis among all HLA class II alleles. Additional risk is associated with the strongly linked alleles DRB1*03:01 and DQB1*02:01 as well as with allele DRB1*13:03 (PubMed:21833088). It is postulated that bacterial or viral infection triggers the autoimmune MS. Microbial peptides having low affinity crossreactivity to MBP autoantigen, may stimulate autoreactive T cells via molecular mimicry and initiate the autoimmune inflammation (PubMed:19303388).^{[3] [4]} Allele DRB1*15:01 is associated with increased susceptibility to Goodpasture syndrome. Can present a self-peptide derived from COL4A3 (GWISLWKGFSF) on TCR (TRAV19 biased) in pathogenic CD4-positive T-helper 1 and T-helper 17 cells, triggering autoimmune inflammation.^[5] Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Alleles DRB1*04:01; DRB1*04:04; DRB1*04:05; DRB1*04:08; DRB1*10:01; DRB1*01:01 and DRB1*01:02 are associated with increased susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis, where affected individuals have antibodies to cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP-positive rheumatoid arthritis). Variations at position 40 in the peptide-binding cleft of these alleles explain most of the association to rheumatoid arthritis risk.^[6]

Function

DRB1_HUMAN A beta chain of antigen-presenting major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) molecule. In complex with the alpha chain HLA-DRA, displays antigenic peptides on professional antigen presenting cells (APCs) for recognition by alpha-beta T cell receptor (TCR) on HLA-DRB1-restricted CD4-positive T cells. This guides antigen-specific T-helper effector functions, both antibody-mediated immune response and macrophage activation, to ultimately eliminate the infectious agents and transformed cells (PubMed:15265931, PubMed:16148104, PubMed:22327072, PubMed:27591323, PubMed:29884618, PubMed:31495665, PubMed:8642306). Typically presents extracellular peptide antigens of 10 to 30 amino acids that arise from proteolysis of endocytosed antigens in lysosomes (PubMed:8145819). In the tumor microenvironment, presents antigenic peptides that are primarily generated in tumor-resident APCs likely via phagocytosis of apoptotic tumor cells or macropinocytosis of secreted tumor proteins (PubMed:31495665). Presents peptides derived from intracellular proteins that are trapped in autolysosomes after macroautophagy, a mechanism especially relevant for T cell selection in the thymus and central immune tolerance (PubMed:17182262, PubMed:23783831). The selection of the immunodominant epitopes follows two processing modes: 'bind first, cut/trim later' for pathogen-derived antigenic peptides and 'cut first, bind later' for autoantigens/self-peptides (PubMed:25413013). The anchor residue at position 1 of the peptide N-terminus, usually a large hydrophobic residue, is essential for high affinity interaction with MHCII molecules (PubMed:8145819).^{[7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16]} Allele DRB1*01:01: Displays an immunodominant epitope derived from Bacillus anthracis pagA/protective antigen, PA (KLPLYISNPNYKVNVYAVT), to both naive and PA-specific memory CD4-positive T cells (PubMed:22327072).

Displays commonly recognized peptides derived from IAV external protein HA (PKYVKQNTLKLAT and SNGNFIAPEYAYKIVK) and from internal proteins M, NP and PB1, with M-derived epitope (GLIYNRMGAVTTEV) being the most immunogenic (PubMed:25413013, PubMed:32668259, PubMed:8145819, PubMed:9075930).
