Journal ArticleDOI

Atomic structure of a thermostable subdomain of HIV-1 gp41.

TL;DR: This thermostable subdomain displays the salient features of the core structure of the isolated gp41 subunit and thus provides a possible target for therapeutics designed selectively to block HIV-1 entry.
Journal ArticleDOI

The crystal structure of a T cell receptor in complex with peptide and MHC class II

TL;DR: That docking is limited to one segment of MHC-bound peptide offers an explanation for epitope recognition and altered peptide ligand effects, suggests a structural basis for alloreactivity, and illustrates how bacterial superantigens can span the TCR-pMHCII surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structure of the TSP-1 type 1 repeats a novel layered fold and its biological implication

TL;DR: This is the first high-resolution crystal structure of a TSR domain that provides a prototypic architecture for structural and functional exploration of the diverse members of the TSR superfamily.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of a Heterophilic Adhesion Complex between the Human CD2 and CD58 (LFA-3) Counterreceptors

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the heterophilic adhesion complex between the amino-terminal domains of human CD2 and CD58 is reported, explaining CD2-CD58 dynamic binding and offering insights into interactions of related immunoglobulin superfamily receptors.
