Regulation of MHC class II antigen presentation by sorting of recycling HLA-DM/DO and class II within the multivesicular body.

TL;DR: It is shown that DM/DO complexes continuously recycle between the plasma membrane and the lysosomal MIICs, which augments the efficiency of class II antigenic peptide loading by affecting the efficacy of lateral interaction betweenDM/DO and class II molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

HFE cross-talks with the MHC class I antigen presentation pathway

TL;DR: The present results suggest the existence of an intriguing cross-talk between a particular HFE mutation and the classical MHC class I route and provide additional evidence for the occurrence of immunologic defects in patients with HH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide identification and characterization of novel factors conferring resistance to topoisomerase II poisons in cancer

TL;DR: This work identifies genes that may predict the response of cancer patients to the broadly used topoisomerase II poisons and defines alternative pathways that could be therapeutically exploited in treatment-resistant patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Definition of Proteasomal Peptide Splicing Rules for High-Efficiency Spliced Peptide Presentation by MHC Class I Molecules.

TL;DR: It is observed that splicing does not occur at random, neither in terms of the amino acid sequences nor through random splicing of peptides from different sources, and splicing followed distinct rules that were deduced and validated both in vitro and in cells.
Journal Article

Association with beta 2-microglobulin controls the expression of transfected human class I genes.

TL;DR: Introduction of a human beta 2-microglobulin gene into L cells transfected with the HLA-B27 gene rescued the expression of HLA -B27 at the cell surface, as evidenced by reactivity with W6/32, surface staining, and the presence of sialic acid on the heavy chain.
