Antigen Presenting Cell

T Cell-Antigen Recognition
  • Respond to contiguous short amino acid sequences
    in proteins-T Cell Epitopes
  • Peptides
  • Not Native Protein
  • T cells do not bind free peptides
  • T Cells Recognize a complex of a peptide fragment
    bound to the membrane proteins of cells- Major
    histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules

MHC Molecules
  • MHC I
  • MHC II
  • Physiological function is to present peptides to
    T cells

7
Major Histocompatibility Complex Proteins
  • Human-HLA (human leukocyte antigen)
  • Mouse H-2
  • Bovines BoLA
  • Equines ELA
  • Swine SLA
  • OLA, CLA, DLA, FLA

MHC Class II Molecules
  • Present Peptides to CD4 T Cells
  • Expressed on Dendritic Cells, B Cells,

21
General Characteristic of Peptide-MHC Interactions
  • Each MHC class I class II molecule has a single
    peptide binding cleft that can bind many
    different peptides
  • Anchor Residues

22
Peptide Binding to MHC Molecules via Anchor
Residues
23
  • Two different Peptides bind the same MHC
  • Sequence Motif
