Conserved allomorphs of MR1 drive the specificity of MR1-restricted TCRs
BackgroundMajor histocompatibility complex class-1-related protein (MR1), unlike human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class-1, was until recently considered to be monomorphic. MR1 presents metabolites in the context of host responses to bacterial infection. MR1-

IFNγ regulates MR1 transcription and antigen presentation [PDF]
IntroductionAntigen presentation molecules play key roles in T cell immunity. Multiple complementary pathways are known to regulate classical MHC-I molecules at transcriptional, translational, and post-translational levels.

Protocol for MR1-ligand cross-linking to discover metabolite antigens by proteomics [PDF]
Summary: Here, we present a protocol for the discovery of MR1-bound metabolite ligands by stabilizing Schiff base interactions between MR1 and its ligands.

MR1-dependent antigen presentation [PDF]
MR1 is a non-classical class I molecule that is highly conserved among mammals. Though discovered in 1995, only recently have MR1 ligands and antigens for MR1-restricted T cells been described. Unlike the traditional class I molecules HLA-A, -B, and -C, little MR1 is on the cell surface.

Suppression of MR1 by human cytomegalovirus inhibits MAIT cell activation
IntroductionThe antigen presentation molecule MHC class I related protein-1 (MR1) is best characterized by its ability to present bacterially derived metabolites of vitamin B2 biosynthesis to mucosal-associated invariant T-cells (MAIT cells ...

Deaza-modification of MR1 ligands modulates recognition by MR1-restricted T cells
MR1-restricted T (MR1T) cells recognize microbial small molecule metabolites presented on the MHC Class I-like molecule MR1 and have been implicated in early effector responses to microbial infection.

MR1-restricted T cells have been implicated in microbial infections, sterile inflammation, wound healing and cancer. Similar to other antigen presentation molecules, evidence supports multiple, complementary MR1 antigen presentation pathways.

Synaptotagmin 1 and Synaptotagmin 7 promote MR1-mediated presentation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens [PDF]
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is an intracellular pathogen that can be sensed by T cells, which are essential for the control of infection. In comparison to viral infections, Mtb antigens are relatively limited and hence, challenging to sample ...

Antigen Recognition by MR1-Reactive T Cells; MAIT Cells, Metabolites, and Remaining Mysteries
Mucosal-associated Invariant T (MAIT) cells recognize vitamin B-based antigens presented by the non-polymorphic MHC class I related-1 molecule (MR1). Both MAIT T cell receptors (TCR) and MR1 are highly conserved among mammals, suggesting an important ...
