Molecular mimicry or structural mimicry?

Molecular Immunology, 2006
"Molecular mimicry" should be changed to "structural mimicry". The immune system recognizes shapes--three-dimensional shapes--not sequences. For two sequences to act biologically similar they must possess similar three-dimensional structures.

Molecular Mimicry in Mercury Toxicology

Chemical Research in Toxicology, 2006
Molecular mimicry occurs when one molecular entity is "mistaken" for another by cellular or other biological processes, and is thought to arise from structural similarities between the two molecules in question. It has been postulated by others to be important in the mechanism of uptake of toxic metal species into living tissues.

Molecular mimicry and auto-immunity

Clinical Reviews in Allergy and Immunology, 2007
The term "molecular mimicry" was coined by R. Damian in 1964, who was first to suggest that antigenic determinants of micro-organisms may resemble antigenic determinants of their host. Damian suggested that this similarity served as a defense mechanism of a microorganism from the host's immune system and prevented the development of immune response to ...

Molecular mimicry and autoimmunity in the time of COVID-19 [PDF]

Journal of Autoimmunity, 2023
Infectious diseases are commonly implicated as potential initiators of autoimmune diseases (ADs) and represent the most commonly known factor in the development of autoimmunity in susceptible individuals.

Molecular Mimicry and Autoimmunity

New England Journal of Medicine, 1999
Autoimmune disease is the consequence of an immune response against self-antigens that results in the damage and eventual dysfunction of target organs. Although the triggering event in most autoimmune diseases is unknown, an infectious cause has long been postulated to explain the development of autoimmunity. Molecular mimicry is one mechanism by which
