Immune self-reactivity triggered by drug-modified HLA-peptide repertoire

TL;DR: It is shown that unmodified abacavir binds non-covalently to HLA-B*57:01, lying across the bottom of the antigen-binding cleft and reaching into the F-pocket, where a carboxy-terminal tryptophan typically anchors peptides bound to HLAs, and that carbamazepine binds to this allotype, producing alterations in the repertoire of presented self peptides.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD1d–lipid-antigen recognition by the semi-invariant NKT T-cell receptor

TL;DR: The structure provides a basis for the interaction between the highly conserved NKT TCR α-chain and the CD1d–antigen complex that is typified in innate immunity, and indicates how variability of the N KT TCR β-chain can impact on recognition of other CD1D–antigens complexes.

Ex Vivo Profiling of CD8+-T-Cell Responses to Human Cytomegalovirus Reveals Broad and Multispecific Reactivities in Healthy Virus Carriers

TL;DR: It is found that successful HCMV-specific immune control in healthy virus carriers is dependent on a strong T-cell response towards a broad repertoire of antigens, which contrasts with previous findings that viral interference with the antigen-processing pathway during lytic infection would render immediate-early and early/late proteins less immunogenic.
