Journal ArticleDOI

Ligands for the murine NKG2D receptor: expression by tumor cells and activation of NK cells and macrophages.

TL;DR: The expression cloning of two murine ligands for the lectin-like receptor NKG2D are reported, which are distant relatives of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules and are newly identified potent stimulators of innate immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Molecular Genetics of the T-Cell Antigen Receptor and T-Cell Antigen Recognition

TL;DR: The genes encoding the alpha and beta chain of the T-cell receptor and the gamma gene have been cloned, and their structure, organization, ontogeny of expression, pattern of rearrangement, and diversification are now generally understood.
Journal ArticleDOI

ERAAP customizes peptides for MHC class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum

TL;DR: ERAAP is the missing link between the products of cytosolic processing and the final peptides presented by MHC class I molecules on the cell surface, and its expression is strongly upregulated by interferon-γ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of an MHC class I-restricted autoantigen in type 1 diabetes by screening an organ-specific cDNA library.

TL;DR: This is the first identification, to the authors' knowledge, of a CD8 T-cell epitope in an autoimmune disease, and the peptide recognized by the cells is in the same region of the insulin B chain as the epitope recognized by previously isolated pathogenic CD4 T cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Class I MHC presentation of exogenous soluble antigen via macropinocytosis in bone marrow macrophages

TL;DR: Brefeldin et al. as mentioned in this paper provided morphological evidence that proteins taken up by macropinocytosis can gain access to the cytosol and therefore into the conventional class I MHC pathway.
