A Molecular Basis for the Presentation of Phosphorylated Peptides by HLA-B Antigens. [PDF]
Mol Cell Proteomics, 2017 As aberrant protein phosphorylation is a hallmark of tumor cells, the display of tumor-specific phosphopeptides by Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) class I molecules can be exploited in the treatment of cancer by T-cell-based immunotherapy. Yet, the characterization and prediction of HLA-I phospholigands is challenging as the molecular determinants of the

Spondyloarthritis and the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-B*27 Connection [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Heritability of Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is highlighted by several familial studies and a high association with the presence of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*27. Though it has been over four decades since the association of HLA-B*27 with SpA was first determined, the pathophysiological roles played by specific HLA-B*27 allotypes are not fully ...

Genetic and serological heterogeneity of the supertypic HLA-B locus specificities Bw4 and Bw6 [PDF]
, 1989 Gene cloning and sequencing of the HLA-B locus split antigens B38 (B16.1) and B39 (B16.2) allowed localization of their subtypic as well as their public specificities HLA-Bw4 or -Bw6 to the c~-helical region of the c~ 1 domain flanked by the amino acid ...

High-throughput high-resolution class I HLA genotyping in East Africa. [PDF]
, 2010 HLA, the most genetically diverse loci in the human genome, play a crucial role in host-pathogen interaction by mediating innate and adaptive cellular immune responses. A vast number of infectious diseases affect East Africa, including HIV/AIDS, malaria,

The HLA-E Gene encodes two differentially regulated Transcripts and a Cell Surface Protein [PDF]
, 1992 An HLA-E-specific oligonucleotide probe was used to study the expressioonf HLA-E. This probed etects two HLA-E transcripts, 1.8 and 2.7 kb in size, which are present in varying ratios in allt issues and cell lines investigated.

Assembly and maturation of HLA-A and HLA-B antigens in vivo
Cell, 1979 HLA-A and HLA-B antigens are integral membrane glycoproteins which consist of a glycosylated heavy chain embedded in the membrane in noncovalent association with beta 2-microglobulin, a water-soluble polypeptide. The assembly and maturation of these antigens has been studied in vivo in the human B lymphoblastoid cell line T5-1 (HLA-A1, -A2, -B8, -B27).
