Abstract:
The ability of members of the hsp70 family to bind to peptides in vivo and in vitro suggests that they may be involved in the processing of antigens for binding to Major Histocompatibility (MHC) class I and/or class n molecules. The aims of this thesis have been to provide evidence for the involvement of hsp70s in antigen processing and to characterise the binding of peptides by hspTOs by structural and functional studies. Firstly, the peptide-binding domains of two hsp70s, hsp70hom and PBP74, were expressed in isolation from the rest of the molecule for structure determination. Both of these

Abstract:
Peptides generated from cellular protein degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway are presented on MHC class I as a means for the immune system to monitor polypeptides being synthesized by cells. For CD8 + T cells to prevent the spread of an incipient infection, it appears essential they should be able to sense foreign polypeptides being synthesized as soon as possible. A prompt detection of viral proteins is of great importance for the success of an adaptive immune response. Defective ribosomal products (DRiPs) have been postulated as a preferential source which would allow for a rapi

Abstract:
The overall goal of my thesis research was to understand better the mechanisms that control antigen processing and presentation by class II MHC molecules. Towards this goal I investigated ways in which the physical structure and post-translational modifications of the class II MHC alpha and beta chains and associated molecules might serve to regulate antigen processing and presentation. Specifically, I investigated (1) a hypothesis that Ii might aid binding of foreign antigenic peptides to the class II MHC foreign antigen binding site (desetope), and the application of this hypothesis to the p

To detect viral infections and tumors, CD8 T lymphocytes monitor cells for the presence of antigenic peptides bound to MHC class I molecules.

Many of the oligopeptides produced by this process are too long to stably bind to MHC class I molecules and require further trimming for presentation.

Abstract:
CD8 T cells recognize complexes of MHC class I and peptide on the surface of target cells. MHC class I antigen presentation is a long pathway, in which proteins are degraded by proteasomes to generating oligopeptides, which may be further trimmed by aminopeptidases in the cytosol. Peptides are transported into the ER, where they may be further trimmed by ER lumenal aminopeptidases and bind to newly-synthesized MHC class I complexes. Proteins degraded by the proteasome are generally tagged with ubiquitin by a combination of ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes and ubiquitin ligases. UBC9 is one ubiqui

博士<br>國防醫學院<br>生命科學研究所<br>102<br>Dendritic cells (DCs) can process and present extracellular antigens on MHC class I molecules to activate cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses through an important mechanism, antigen cross-presentation. However, toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated cross-presentation of extracellular antigens by DCs remains unclear. In this study, models of synthetic di-palmitoylated peptides (Pam2IDG and Pam2EQL) explored the mechanisms of TLR2-mediated cross-presentation. We observed that TLR2 facilitated the internalization of di-palmitoylated peptides by bone marrow-derived

Abstract:
Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class I receptors are glycoproteins which play a critical role in anti-viral immunity by displaying foreign peptides to cytotoxic T cell lymphocytes. The loading of high affinity peptides into the MHC class I receptor in mammals is coordinated by a multiple proteins that are collectively referred to as the peptide loading complex (PLC). To date, the composition of the peptide loading complex in fish is unknown and therefore the characterization of the molecules which may exist in this putative complex was pursued. This thesis includes the cloning and
