Lec 5 Major Histocompatibility Complex Flashcards
major histocompatibility complex is a region formed by genetic loci involved in blank
foreign tissue rejection
mhc is central role in blank and blank immunity
cell mediated, humoral
mhc class that binds endogenous Ag expressed on all nucleated cells
class 1
mhc class that binds exogenous antigen. these molecules are only on antigen presenting cells
class 2
mhc class that has soluble serum proteins
class 3
mhc is involved in determining if we can take a blank
transplant
mhc are highly blank which that there are many alternate forms of the gene which means it is difficult to find a match for things like a bone marrow transplant
polymorphic
functional assay class of mhc mapping that is cell mediated lympholysis and complement mediated cytotoxicity
class 1
functional assay class that is mixed lymphocyte reaction
class 2
mhc class that has alpha and beta 2 microglobulin that looks like it is standing on one leg
class 1
mhc class 1 is found on membranes of all blank cells
nucleated
mhc class that is 2 polypeptide chains and both alpha and beta chain go through the membrane
class 2
mhc class 2 is found on certain blank cells
immune/antigen presenting
mhc class 3 are blank proteins and play blank role in antigen presentation
soluble, no
mhc diversity is greater than blank
1 trillion
